    plz ans. me....

    You can only purchase apps and other media for the county's sore in which yu are located. You account, included payment method, also must be associated with that country.
    Sam applies for updating apps. Note that not all apps are available in all country so y will not be able to update an app if you are in another country and that app is not available in that country or your account is not associated with that country.
    You can change the country and other things by:

    This is most likely because it was jailbroken.  In which case, your phone is now permanently disabled.

  • My MacBook Pro is running very hot after lion install.  Are there any hardware changes that will help? What can I do to get it back to normal?

    My MacBook Pro is running very hot after lion install.  Are there any hardware changes that will help? What can I do to get it back to normal?

    I get the impression that most of the users on older hardware experiences similar temperature issues on Lion for a long time now. Awaiting for confirmation from the original poster.
    In the meantime I'm just cautious with regards to pushing the machine to such extreme temps, since something tells me such behaviour which includes monitor flickering and the likes is nothing but abnormal for any type of use...
    Any clues if 10.7.5 does anything on this? If not I'm afraid i see myself going back to SL for good...

  • My iphone 3gs is not activating after updating my software with i tunes...what shall i do? cant i go back to my normal version which was ios 4.1

    i will really appreciate some help.
    thanks.

    Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
    original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
    carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
    if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    Where did you acquire this iPhone?
    What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
    Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?

  • I cannot get my Iphone 3GS to sync calendar after updating to IOS5!

    After updating my Iphone 3GS to OIS5, my calendars will not sync.  Mail and contacts sync just fine.  Somehow the calendar entries were lost.  The entries still reside on my PC.

    It sounds like it was likely jailbroken and will never activate.
    But if not, contact the original cellular carrier to make sure it was unlocked.

  • Iphone 3GS won't activate after update - asks for itunes, which just quits unexpectedly every time!

    I updated my iphone 3GS and now when I turn it on it just asks to be connected to itunes. Problem is when I do this, itunes unexpectedly quits every time. I've updated the laptop and it makes no difference, and I am left without a phone...really not impressed and can't wait for my upgrade to get rid of it.

    Try this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    This put's an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.  Should solve the problem if it is phone related.  If not, you may want to post in iTunes support as well.  I had a similar problem recently with an iPod touch and this fixed it.

  • IPhone 3gs is not responding after update and then restore!!!

    Hi, I have an iPhone 3gs and i plugged it in to charge. All of the sudden the screen shuts off and it restarts. When it turn back on it says your iPhone has been updated to iOS 6.1.3 please connect it iTunes. When i did connect to itunes it didnt do anything. I followed the instructions on the iPhone but nothing. I tried this on 3 different computers and still nothing. I read some things on the other apple supports saying to restore. Right before the restore would finish on the coumputer it would say error 1!! I tried to restore on different computers as well several times. I never pressed or did anything on the iPhone to make it do this. What do I need to do to get rid of the error or fix the iphone??

    Probably because it's jailbroken or hacked to be used with another carrier.

  • IPhone 4s having front camera issues with iOS 7.1.2 are there any fixes?

    i started having some problems with the front facing camera as soon as i upgraded from iOS 7.1.1 to 7.1.2 the camera just freezes or turns black and i have to restart the phone in order to get it back working (at least the rear camera works when i do this) but as soon as i try and use the front camera it freezes again, is there any way to fix this?

    To rule out a software issue, set it up as new device without using the latest backup. If the camera works after that, restore from the backup.
    If it does not work, your phone might have a hardware problem and needs to be serviced:

  • Iphone 3gs not working properly after update to ios4

    I updated my 3gs to ios4 and have had nothing but problems since doing so. My battery is draining faster than ever, I have had problems syncing with the exchange server at work which has always worked perfectly before, my reception is horrible in places where it used to be just fine, such as my house. I am constantly dropping calls in my house where I know my phone worked just fine before. I know Apple says their formula for figuring signal strength is inaccurate and has been for years, but that really has nothing do to with the fact that my phone used to work at my house and now it doesn't. Regardless of what the signal shows, I know I used to talk on my phone at my house and now it's a real pain in the a** to try to get through a conversation. Also many of my apps such as weather and stock apps will not update sometimes for a couple of days, no matter where I am or what the signal strength says. Has anyone else had a combination of these problems and if so any luck fixing any of them?
    Thanks

    Apple release an article after iOS4 came out about downloading a new exchange file
    Seen here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3398
    I would start by doing this fix and see if that helps out any of your issues.
    I would suggest to sync everything and then back it up, restore your device to 'new', download this new exchange fix and then either restore your phone or better, re-sync you phone.
    Good Luck

    Mine was not jailbroken but is giving the same message when I updated it to iOS 6.1.2. Please help urgently, I really need this phone to be online as soon as yesterday
    Possible causes:
    1. Your antivirus is blocking access to gs.apple.com.
    2. Your phone is jailbroken.
    3. Your computer has been used at some time in the past to jaibreak some iOS device (not necessarily the phone with the problem), and its network database was corrupted by the hacking software that was used.
    4. Apple's activation servers are down (very rare, and never for more than an hour or so).
    For 1. try disabling your antivirus.
    For 2. & 3. you need to go somewhere other than an apple forum for help. Although you can try deleting lines containing gs.apple.com from your "hosts" file on your computer.

  • IPhone 3GS, photo app crashes after update to iOS 4.0.1

    After upgrading my 3GS to iOS 4.0.1, I can no longer use Apple's "photos" app. I start the app, it shows a blank page with pajama lines on it and then closes the app after maybe 20 seconds or so. It's worth mentioning that I have a lot of photos, ~15,000 of them, and most of them are both geocoded and with tagged faces. Anyone have an idea how to fix this?

    Try cutting down the number of photos you have stored on your phone (make sure they are backed up first). I say dwindle it down to a hundred. Just to see if it is because of too many pics for the app to go over, especially with the added data of face tag and geo location. You can always put them back on your phone if you still run into the same issue with far less pics. You also may want to make sure the app has been updated to be compatible with iOS4. Which app are you using by the way?
