Apple's Iphone Recyling program

Has anyone here ever tried recycling their iphones to apple? How long does it usually take before you get the gift card from them?

You can use the card to purchase a new iPhone but it will be a separate transaction.

Beware apple store iPhone replacement program

Beware apple store iPhone replacement program:
We took my daughters broken iphone 4 into an apple store and was told that the damage was not covered under warrany but for only £120 we could get a replacement iphone 4
the problem being when they helped her set up the replacement Iphone 4 they installed os7 as the opperating system rendering the phone useless as it now runs slow, freezes & cannot use messaging at all etc
we went back to the store hoping they could HELP & were told that the iphone should not have these problems & to do a full restore; as it turns out the processing chip cant handle os7 which becomes Very apparent & now the store staff are suggesting that they will upgrade the phone to something newer & give us a £60 discout towards a new phone for something we paid them £120 48hr earlier.
Its not the Apple experience we have all come to love can anyone suggest how we might restore the phone to an earlier opperating system

That's nonsense. I have 2 iPhone fours and both work just fine with iOS 7. As mentioned take ti back.

Apple's iPhone Recycle Program

If I take advantage of Apple's recycle program and exchange my iPhone 4 for an Apple Store gift card, can I then use that card towards a new iPhone in the same transaction (covering any additional cost of course)?

You can use the card to purchase a new iPhone but it will be a separate transaction.

Apple iPhone Case Program (US to Singapore)

I have ordered a case from Apple via the Case Program for my iPhone 4. My iTunes account is linked to my old US address.
However, I have recently moved back to Singapore and would like to request for the case to be sent to Singapore instead.
Is there a way to change my current order's shipping address without contacting Apple via phone but via email?

You'll have to do it by phone.

When is Apple going to open up the iPhone Developer Program?

I signed up for the iPhone Developer Program almost as soon as one could sign up for it. I was one of the unlucky many who got the "you are not important enough to let into the Developer Program" e-mail. That was months ago when the rumor was that they would be opening it up around the time of the WWDC. Well, it is now WWDC time. Is there any more info on this?
Why don't I use the iPhone Simulator? The iPhone Simulator does not simulate the accelerometer very well (i.e., it does not simulate it at all) and the accelerometer is important for my app. I can't even tell if my app is feasible without running some test code so that I can get a real world sense of how well the accelerometer works.
Between this and the significant issues that I am having with my MBP and Apple's lack of response, I am starting to feel that I picked a bad time to start doing Apple development.

Excuse me, but Apple clearly has decided that some application developers are more important than others. The App Store is opening up next month and I don't think they will be selling apps that haven't been QA'ed on real devices. Oh, I get it. All of the big name mobile software vendors that Apple wants to display in their App Store just happened to get randomly selected.
"Apple has no way of knowing who has real apps ..." Well, I told them that I did. I even told them that it uses the accelerometers, so the simulator wouldn't help.
You note that Apple says that there are 21k developers in a holding pattern. What is it about the iPhone Developer Program that stops Apple from just taking people's money and issuing them cookies (or whatever) that allows the downloaded SDK to load apps on real devices? Inviting people over to your house to install your app on their iPhone/iPod touch is not a very good distribution model; the App Store is needed for distribution. The limiting factor is the gatekeeper for the App Store, not a SDK that can run code on real devices. So, why don't they freely distribute a SDK that can run code on real devices?
After telling the world "look, a SDK for the iPhone" months ago, why can't Apple even give a date to 21k people who took the time to sign up for the Program when they might be able to run their apps on real hardware?
I want to do things the right way (through Apple's SDK) and I really don't like the idea of jailbreaking, but right now that seems like the only option that I have to proceed with my app development.

IPhone Developer Program (Apple Online Store not available in my country)

I registered to the iPhone Developer Program (at the beginning of the beta) and a few weeks back i received an e-mail from Apple, that i can enroll to the Developer Program. I clicked on the link in the e-mail, and it brought me to a country selection page, where i had to select which country's Apple Online Store i want to use to purchase the product (the Apple Developer Program). The problem is my country (Hungary) don't have an Online Store, so i couldn't finish the enrollment process.
Can anyone help me about this issue? Is there any other way to purchase it?

Any news about it?
I got the same problem...

Error when activating my iPhone Developer Program membership

Ive just paid 99 dollars for my iphone developer program, and recieved an email containing the activation code. As you probably know, youre supposed to click on this activation-code and it links you to another site. But instead of activation I recieve this error-message on this site:
"We are unable to activate your iPhone Developer Program membership because we are unable to successfully verify your identity. Please contact us and reference Enrollment ID# XXXXXXXXXX for further assistance."
There was no problem verifying my identity when I paid for it. How come thats an issue now?
Since people seem to have to wait for enormous periods of time to get even the simplest questions answered by Apple regarding the Dev Program, I thought I post this here to see if someone else have come across this, and what to do about it (except for waiting indefinitely).

Mine got activated after a few days with no need for further information from me so if you get that same message you probably don't need to worry.

HT4061 I am receiving an Activation Error and unable to get into my phone.It's asking me to register my phone in the iPhone Developer program however I'm already registered. How do I move forward?

Hi, jsgladden.
Here is an article I would recommend when experiencing issues activating a device. The step referring to recovery mode usually resolves the issue.
iPhone: Troubleshooting activation issues

To retrieve your data, you will need to restore from backup after processing these steps. Here is the article that walks you through restoring from either your iCloud or iTunes backup.

Apple Reuse and Recycling Program

I'm not sure where this should live. Its not a question more of a warning.
I recently took advantage of the Apple Reuse and Recycle Program in the UK to recycle three iPhones and obtain some vouchers in return. The Apple Partner for this service in the UK is 'BrightStar'. I used the on-line website and within days the return packs from BrightStar arrived. Enclosed was a flatpack box and a returns label. I packaged up the iPhones as instructed by BrightStar's own documentation, affixed the postage label and took the three packets to the Post Office, to be sure I obtained a 'Certificate of Posting' from the clerk.
Within a couple of days, emails started to arrive saying that the iPhones had been received by BrightStar, however only for two and not three. A day passed and more emails arrived with the Money off Vouchers for the two iPhones but not the third. I left it a day and contacted them via email and received the reply to say that they had not received the third iPhone. Ok.. its got lost.
So I then ask BrightStar, what now happens? Did they have insurance to cover the loss in the postage that they had arranged? No.. they don't pay for any kind of insurance in the postage that they themselves arrange. BrightStar then informed me that it is up to the customer to take out extra insurance or arrange 'Special Delivery' when they take the packages to the Post Office. However, this is not stated in the packaging instructions. So foolishly I have assumed that their pre-paid postage included insurance for the items.
So no iPhone, no voucher . I know its not Apples fault but what really annoys me is the attitude of BrightStar, their Recycling Partner, basically washing their hands of the whole affair, even though they had arranged all of the postage and packaging. Apple really do need to have a word with these people, I expect Apples Partners to be of the same standard as the Apple Organisation.
So people be warned. If you use BrightStar's service make sure you insure your package when you take your pre-paid packet to the Post Office, otherwise if it gets lost, you like me will be out of pocket.
I don't know who to take this up with within Apple, I can find any kind of contact for this kind of issue.

You might try contacting the Customer Support folks and see if they can give you a number for customer relations: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201232
In the US, the user has the option of taking the devices to an Apple store where the transaction is handled by the Apple staff, sounds like a significantly better option. But, thanks for the warning about buyer-beware - the need to protect yourself anytime a valuable device is sent through the post or any shipping organization.

IPhone Developer Program

Hi all,
I would enjoy the iPhone developer program, but I would like to know if it's possible to register not with my real name and surname. I know that it's possible to enjoy it with a company name, but I don't have.
please, let me know.
thanks in advance

No, you need to register with your real name, since joining the program constitutes a legal agreement between you and Apple.
Regards.

Were you running iOS 7 beta? If so, as a developer you need to log into the Developer forum for assistance.
Not a developer and running iOS 7 beta? Then you've stolen Apple's software and will receive absolutely no assistance from this forum. Enjoy your iBrick!

IPhone Case Program

I have just got an iPhone 4 via Orange today and was told to order the bumper for it by downloading the iPhone Case Program but I cannot find this. I have searched under iPhone 4 Case Program but nothing comes up. Have Apple stopped this?

On the iPhone in the App Store you can search for:
iPhone Case Program or just Case Program
It will come up in the search, oddly enough it is not the first option, it is a little down the list.
