Authorised dealer in my area says only models with ae is original others not is it correct

Can apple return non approved products ?
Will I got I pad and I didn't know that there is some products in Saudi Arabia are not original apple products and I just read that only I pad with products number ends with AE only original so what they call the one I have now .?

You may have bought a grey market iPad.
A grey market device was intended to be sold in some other country than Saudi. Someone without Apple's authorization goes to another country and buys iPads then brings the iPads back to Saudi and sells them. A Saudi iPad will restrict you from running certain apps like facebook from what I hear.  The restriction is based on the serial number. There is probably a market in Saudi to avoid such restrictions.
Saudi businesses probably do not want to deal with such machines.
You might try this, to identify the machine.
Query by serial number
Apple's warrenty database will identify the type of Mac you have.

  • My outlook 2010 Contact Groups are not visible in iTunes; only syncs main Outlook Contact Folder, others not synching

    I have an iPhone (running the latest device software) and have Outlook 2010 for PC on my desktop.  I have several Outlook 2010 Contact Folders/Groups but when I try to sync with my iPhone I only have the option to sync all of my contacts.
    When I sync this -- the only Outlook folder/group that is synced is my main 'Contacts' folder/group.  All the rest of my folders/groups are not being transferred to my iPhone.  I've had this issue for a few months now -- and though I like the iPhone, my old Blackberry nev er presented this problem when it came to the simple base function of syncing.  Appreciate your help -- as I am out of answers.  Thanks.

  • 4s Hotspot tethering only works with USB and BT but not with wifi

    Hi,
    XP sp3 - iPhone 4s with ios 5.0.1 - on Three one plan
    Tethering with wifi works to a friends Samsung phone, wifi on the pc confirmed working with the apple store wifi, tethering with USB and BT works with good connection speeds on my laptop but when i try to tether with wifi it connects to the laptop at 54mbps and all appears well, even claims to have received a small amount of data packets, but no data comes to any browser. The iPhone reports 1 connection to the hotspot and stays connected with a non-pulsing blue bar after the first minute.
    In the PC i have tried this http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Change-the-order-of-network-protocol -bindings
    I've deleted my firewall (zone alarm) completely and turned off windows firewall to go naked surfing for a second even though they don't cause a problem with USB tethering, makes no difference
    I've deleted the network connection numerous times
    "repaired" connection
    dissabled and enabled the wifi
    turned off the wireless with a hardware switch and on again
    disabled bluetooth
    rebooted many times
    reinstalled itunes (latest)
    loads more things i can't remember
    This is causing me a nightmare. I've been through everything i can find online, been to the Apple store genius bar (genius appeared to have sub zero knowledge / interest as it involved a MS machine), been to a Three shop (legally not allowed to touch my PC apparently) and been to a Sony shop (laptop make, not their fault if my iphone doesn't work). All very frustrating.
    Please help if you can! Any suggestion will be tried unless it involves sledge hammers or lakes, and only then for a few more days at most.

    Turned off bluetooth on phone, turned off hotspot and on again, phone asked if i wanted to turn on bluetooth or go with USB and wifi only, said usb/wifi only. Still nothing. Rebooted PC and iphone. Turned on hotspot, pc seemlessly connects to network, still no data comes.
    One odd thing is zone alarm asks me to "select a security zone for the wireless network at ip address: *******.0" every time and doesn't seem to remember the setting over sessions. When i get the status of the connection the ip address is *****.2 and default gateway is same ********.1 Not sure if that's anything.
    Also getting a javascript error about an undefinded component (trustcheckermozilla) since i updated zonealarm but as i said even completely uninstalling zonealarm made no difference. I'll update firefox as well but tried with IE and still no data.

  • Why are some songs in a playlist checked an others not?

    I have created a new playlist from some of my music but some of the songs have a tick (check) mark in the box next to them and others don't.  I can't seem to either check all of the songs or uncheck the checked ones.  Does this matter?  What does it mean?  Any advice gratefully received, thanks

    I have the same issue.. seems like randomly.. some songs are unchecked by iTunes (I've never proactively unchecked any).. is this a bug?

  • HT4623 My iPad 2 audio only works with headphones and orientation does not work at all

    My iPad 2 volume button does not work with the integrated speakers of my iPad, once a headphone is connected to the jack output of my iPad the OSD volume displays fine and works to the external headphone but once the headphone jack is removed, there is no more a volume bar and the side volume buttons don't work at all, this has affected the screen orientation as well, screen does not orientate  as well,
    Please help

    If you deleted files from the operating system, you wrecked your installation and the first thing you need to do is either restore those files from a backup or reinstall the OS. Doing that is never the solution to any problem. Back up all data before making any changes.

  • How come my powerpoint app only comes to a page that says whats new with powerpoint?

    When I click on my power point app to open it the only thing that comes up is a screen that says "whats new with power point" i do not have any options to open a new template or create a new one. My Word app works just fine, but power point is giving lots of grief.

    You might want to contact MS for support. It sounds like your office install is not working correctly.

  • Lightroom 5 from Amazon: Box says "Only for distribution in North America"

  • Are these speakers compatible with new 24" iMac?

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16836101057
    I know the one's on the Apple site are compatible but these are cheaper. Are they the same thing or are these made for PC, since NewEgg sells PC stuff?

    The detailed description says it just connects with a mini-stereo jack connector, so it should work. They are like any other external power speakers. Just plug it in to the audio output port in the back, like you would plug in headphones.
    The older original Sound Sticks connected using USB (if I remember correctly), and those may or may not be compatible with the latest Macs and Mac OS X version. But these are the "II" model with a regular connector, so it should be fine.
    Funny that the branding is JBL and not Harmon Kardon. Did JBL buy them out?

  • Update -Graph and Pivot Table model.DataControls.dcx of type null not found

    Now Solved.
    I upgraded to the new Jdeveloper release and the Preview works.
    Update
    I created a new application and the graphs work ok.
    Now, why in my current project won't the graphs work???
    Chuck
    This just occured today 6/22/09.
    When ever I preview a graph or pivot table i receive this message:
    oracle.jbo.NoDefException: JBO-25002: Definition model.DataControls.dcx of type null not found
    I drop the query on a form as a table and it works fine.
    I have used Graphs before, and ahve never recieved this error.
    I just remenbered, I was using the previous release of Jdeveloper when I built the graphs.
    Probably nothing !!
    In the developers manual this message is mentioned:
    +29.3 Correcting Simple Oracle ADF Runtime Errors+
    Failures of the Oracle ADF Model layer cannot be detected by the JDeveloper
    compiler, in part because the page’s data-display and method-execution behavior
    relies on the declarative Oracle ADF page definition files. The Oracle ADF Model layer
    utilizes those declarative files at runtime to create the objects of the Oracle ADF
    binding container.
    To go beyond simple schema validation, you will want to routinely run and test your
    web pages to ensure that none of the following conditions exists:
    +■ The project dependency between the data model project and the user interface+
    project is disabled.
    By default, the dependency between projects is enabled whenever you create a
    web page that accesses a data control in the data model project. However, if the
    dependency is disabled and remains disabled when you attempt to run the
    application, an internal servlet error will be generated at runtime:
    oracle.jbo.NoDefException: JBO-25002: Definition
    model.DataControls.dcx of type null not found
    To correct the error, double-click the user interface project, and select the
    Dependencies node in the dialog. Make sure that the ModelProjectName.jpr
    option appears selected in the panel.
    I checked and the model.jpr is there.
    I re-installed jdeveloper but the same error occurs.
    I have no idea on how to proceed.

    Well, Shay
    I search my entire C drive for datacontrol.dcx and *.dcx and no files found.
    I am usiing ADF.
    The new application that I created that works in preview does not have this file.
    I unstalled jdeveloper, downloaded a new copy, deleted Oracle directory, installed jdeveloper and results are the same.
    Is the datacontrol.dcx file the same as the "datacontrol in the Data Controls Folder "?
    The datacontrol is present the Data Controls Folder (model.jpr model.appmodule)
    There are 3 messages in the log pertaining to DVT listed below.

  • Am I the only one with a dispatch date 19th July?

    I did order on 19th June anyone else waiting this long?

    I went to the Apple Store on launch day and bought my iPhone 4. No reservation, just went in and bought it. Much easier than pre-ordering. Enjoy the iPhone when you get it. iPhone 4 is excellent.
    Oh to answer your question, it's unlikely you are the only one with a specific date. If Apple were allocating one iPhone per pre order per day, the backlog would take until iPhone 26 to get through.
