Are the iPhone 4s's sold through Apple compatible with the Telstra NextG network or must you buy one through Telstra?

I'm looking at buying an iPhone 4s but have been told you must purchase them through Telstra for them to be NextG compatible because they modify them for use on their network.
Is this true or will one purchased from Apple Australia work on the network as well?

No.

Yep.
The only difference is that you can purchase an officially unlocked iPhone directly from Apple. You purchase one from Telstra, and it will be locked to Telstra...although Telstra does offer official unlocking.

  • Bootcamp support drivers "the version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you are running"

    Hi,
    I've searched everywhere I can think of for a solution to this problem with no success. I see other people have reported similar issues and these have not yet been resolved.
    I have installed Windows 7 32 bit on a new Mac Mini under Bootcamp. When I go to install the Bootcamp drivers in Windows, I get the message "the version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you are running". 
    Other people have reported this issue when trying to install 3rd party software on a 64 bit version of windows but I'm simply trying to install the Bootcamp drivers on a 32 bit version of Windows.
    Is it possible the Mac Mini needs a 64 bit version of Windows installed under Bootcamp? I haven't seen this requirement mentioned anywhere.
    Appreciated all and any help that can be offered.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    That's because the Late 2012 iMac and Mac mini only supports the 64-bit Windows 7 version, so the drivers you downloaded are designed to work with the 64-bit version and you can't install them on a 32-bit version. Install the 64-bit Windows 7 on your computer

  • Is there a iphone 6 that is unlocked and compatible with the sprint SIM card?

    ok so my Galaxy s4 caught on fire the other day while I was sleeping. And so now instead of getting another galaxy that might do the same thing I'm switching to apple. Now my question is, is there an iphone 6 that is unlocked an compatible with the sprint SIM card. Because my SIM card from the galaxy is still good, but I don't want to go to sprint and get it from them because I'm switching carries in a year.

    Iphone does NOT store to the SIM at all.
    You should be syncing iphone to your computer regularly so all of your contacts should be on your computer in whatever program you have chosen to sync.

  • I tried to restore  a bacup from a 32Gig iPhone 4s to a 32 Gig iphone 5C and get the message backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iphone that is being restored. Please Help

    I tried to restore  a backup from a 32 Gig iPhone 4s (That seemed successful) to a 32 Gig iphone 5C and get the message "backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iphone that is being restored" Can anyone assist?

    I have the same issue and I KNOW my backup IS good. What happen is when you try to restore your phone apple says something like can I check for new updates and if you choose no, it just takes you back to the restore screen and a loop from then on.  If you dont update from you phone then when you back up you will have the 5.0.1 back up and then when you update to 5.1.1 and then try to restore the backup from 5.0.1 it say it EITHER corrupt or incompatible.. It is incompatible and its hard as **** to restore back to 5.0.1. I followed the restore to a T and still getting errors. I lost all text history and have to reset up email. All just because I wanted a 1.2 Gigs of "other" space back.

  • Simple question: Are Creative Cloud apps currently or will be compatible with the new Amazon Fire phone?

    Simple question: Are Creative Cloud apps currently or will be compatible with the new Amazon Fire phone? My friend owns one and says since it's a fairly new operating system that nothing is compatible except the Amazon apps. Is this correct and does Adobe plan to support that OS in the future?

    If that uses the Android operating system, anything for Android works
    Mobile Apps
    As far as future plans, I don't work for Adobe so have no idea

    Hello,
    seems to me that you maybe only updated the syncengine but not portal/webservice.
    I had that error once after an recovery from scratch and forgot one of the hotfixes to apply to all services.

  • "The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running.[...]".What can I do?

    I must run a 32-bit programe  on a windows 64-bit operating sistem, and i receive this message:"The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running.[...]". I tried with Troubleshoot compatibility - didn't
    work. I tried set to run in compatibility mode for Windows XP in file properties window and it didn't work.  What can I do more? I
    must run this programe to acces my database.

    Hello qqnicol,
    What program do you run?
    Please contact the software provider to confirm if this 32-bit program can run in 64-bit Windows.
    As some programs can only run in specific version of Windows, please download the right version of software.
    Most programs designed for the 32-bit version of Windows will work on the 64-bit version of Windows. Notable exceptions are many antivirus programs.
    Device drivers designed for the 32-bit version of Windows don't work on computers running a 64-bit version of Windows too.

  • I'm thinking about getting an i pod touch for my daughter. If I get the 4th generation i pod, is it compatible with the ios 7 updates for i phones as far as if she wants to imessage or face time with me?

    I'm thinking about getting an i pod touch for my daughter. If I get the 4th generation i pod, is it compatible with the ios 7 updates for i phones as far as if she wants to imessage or face time with me?

    The 4G can not run IOS-7.  "6" is the highest that it can go.  You need the 5G for IOS-7.
    However, that won't affect her ability to use iMessage and FaceTime.

    If you can buy from Crucial, Amazon or macsales (OWC), I would (I know that Crucial and OWC ship internationally but I don't know about Amazon). Both have lifetime guarantees for their products and should not be affected at all during shipping.
    Amazon has a better price on the Crucial RAM than even Crucial, by the way.

  • Can the iphone 5's home button be replaced with the ipone 5ss'

    i was wondering if the iphone 5's home button can be switched with an ipone 5s's home button

    No, for several reasons:
    This would void your warranty, and if something were to go wrong, you would be stuck with a useless paperweight.
    The iPhone 5s is specifically engineered to take advantage of the fingerprint sensor. The iPhone 5 does not have the hardware to use the fingerprint sensor.
    The iPhone 5s' internal routings may be different to the iPhone 5's, meaning the home button will not fit.
    What would you do with the iPhone 5's home button?
    Do not attempt this, even if other people tell you it's possible and/or safe. They are incorrect. Your Apple hardware is only designed to work with the parts it was designed for.
    If you're looking to save on an iPhone 5s, then you can exchange your iPhone 5 for an iPhone 5s with some discount.
    Hope this helped!

  • Firefox was working, today did not start with error message the the version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you're running.

    Computer has Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. Firefox has run fine for over a year on this computer. Nothing was changed or updated except Windows update shows that it installed updates on Aug 19. I had computer off for week before because out of town, came back and started on Aug 18, but Firefox worked on that day. Did not use FF again till today. Today on Aug 22nd, firefox will not start, shortcut icon has changed to program not there. Exe in folder when clicked brings up error message say the version of this file is not compatible with version of Windows I am running. Firefox exe shows created Aug 20. I suspect update, either Windows or FF but lean towards windows, happened that broke things. I notice IE 10 updates, .NET framework updates and malicious software removal tool updates were installed. I have tried restarting computer, did not fix. Tried to run as admin, didn't work. I do not want to uninstall FF unless have to because of all the stuff I have in there, bookmarks, last pass passwords, etc.

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files ('''not the profile folder where the bookmarks are stored''') and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.

  • How can I update my iphone 4 and sync on itunes? All I get is :Could not back up the iphone because the back up is corrupt or not compatible with the iphone. -

    Trying to update my iphone to v.5.1.1 however it downloads the version but just at the end of updating my phone I get the message: iTunes could not back up the iphone as the back up was corrupt or not compatible.
    How can I fix this?
    Thanks

    The backup and restore from the iCloud was a little unnerving since the restore erased all information from the iPod.  The iCloud backup and restore took a long time, but worked.  I was very grateful.
    Trying again to backup to iTunes locally proved to be the same challenging problem.  The same backup to corrupt file was the message.  The status bar showing backup seemed to move faster to start, but then slowed to a creep toward the end before the error. 
    When trying to restore a backup in iTunes, the "Restore" button is grayed out since it is looking for a local copy.  Any restore would need to be from the iCloud which already worked but isn't the final solution.
    Your suggestions were good, I am just in the same boat.  Any thoughts about doing the following?
    1) creating a cloud backup
    2) resetting the iPod to factory defaults
    3) removing all traces of iTunes from my computer and
    4) installing iTunes and setting up iPod from scratch.
    This is the next thing on my list.

  • Is the siri introduced on 7 March 2012 compatible with the ios 5.1 will work on all devices

    plz help me

    The ONLY Siri announcement on March 7th was the addition of Japanese support on the iPhone 4S.  Siri support is NOT available on any other platform.  Only the iPhone 4S and now there is Japanese support.
    The other announcements on March 7th were a new 1080p Apple TV, 1080p video content via iTunes, and the "New iPad" with Retina Display and LTE cellular networking capabilities for some carriers and countries.
    No "One More Thing", and No "Siri" for any device except iPhone 4S.
