Autorisation in Africa

I thought install creative cloud before leaving Belgium and connect me only for monthly autorisation. and maybe for some updates.
But I don't see RDC (Congo) or at least Rwanda in the list.
So is it really impossible?

Hi Si Be
If you're from Belgium you can sign up for Creative Cloud and you'll still be able to use it if you then travel to other countries.
An internet connection is required the first time you install and license your desktop apps, but you can use the apps in offline mode with a valid software license. The desktop apps will attempt to validate your software licenses every 30 days.
For annual members, you can use the apps for up to 99 days in offline mode. Month-to-month members can use the software for up to 30 days in offline mode.
Hope this helps.
Thanks
Bev

I have a Macbook Air purchased in 2011 in the US. I am traveling in South Africa and am unsure if I need a step down voltage converter before I plug my laptop into the wall to charge it (using an outlet adapter). Am I ok to just plug in?

So standard electrical output from wall outlets in the US is 110V - 120V, and standard output from wall outlets in South Africa is 220V - 240V. In SA I know I can plug in an iPhone using the iPhone charging cable and it will automatically step down the voltage, thus preventing my phone from overheating. I cannot plug in a hairdryer or flat iron without step down voltage converter in SA. Can I use the charger that came with my US 2011 Macbook Air and plug into a wall outlet in South Africa or do I need to purchase a step down voltage converter in order to charge my laptop while in SA?

You only need a plug adaptor as long as the voltage is between 100 and 240 volts.

I lived in the US for a few years, spent a fortune on iTunes [my then local Apple ID account]. Now I live in South Africa and want to use Match. I have a local credit card but how do I use my new / 2nd Apple ID and gain access to all my US music??

You have to be in a country to use its store - you will need to be in the US and have a US billing address on your account to be able to use the US store (that applies to buying and redownloading).
You can use iTunes Match in South Africa, do you not have a backup copy of all of your US iTunes purchases so that you can subscribe to it and upload those that aren't in the South African store to it ?

Hi
I have a Macbook air & iPhone 4.
what do I need to do if I want to buy a book (ebook) or an application that is not available in the iTunes store in my area i.e. Africa (Egypt)?
Do I need to open a different account in the iTunes store in the other area i.e. USA ?
Please advice
Thank you

You can only buy content from your own country's store i.e. the Egyptian store if you are in Egypt - you need to be in a country to use its store, so to use the US store you will need to be in the US and have a US billing address on your account. If there is an app or any other item that you would like to be buy that isn't currently available in the Egyptian store then you can try requesting that it be added, but unless the app's developer or rights-holder agrees to it then Apple won't be able to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

Can I use the same power charger in another country (South Africa) and just but a socket adapter?

I am moving to South Africa from the US for a year and want to know if I can use the same power charger in South Africa and just but a socket adapter or do I need to get a new power charger for S.A.?
This question was solved.

Hi,
Nowadays laptop chargers can be used for normal electricity around the world (110V to 250V). All we need is a small plug adapter similar the the ones we use to travel overseas. Most electrical shops, travel agents and airports ... sell them.

I am in Africa with a slow modem for internet. I tried to downlad Firefox 4 and was confronted with a video about how to use it which will suck up all my modem credit. So now I don't have Firefox 4. How can I get it without having the download video?

On a Lenovo laptop, completed the download and restart and got the video which proceeds very slowly because this is Africa! I have learned never to watch videos here because it blows all my modem credit in a short time. Now I don't seem to have Firefox 4 on the computer, but the previous version is there, though unpinned from the TAskBar.

Got an iPhone 3G, but can't use most of the features in South Africa-HELP!

Hi there.
I got my iPhone about 4-5 months ago in South Africa. I love the hardware, I love the way it looks, what you can do with it, etc. But there's one thing I find really really annoying, and that is the fact that I can't use the phone features that users in other countries have access to.
No, I haven't run into any technical problems.
The problem is that we have hardly anything available in our iTunes store. I invite you to switch your iTunes browser to the South Africa store and check it out... Yup, that's right, we have no music, movies, TV shows, podcasts or audiobooks. So what do we have? Some apps... yep some, but from the looks of it a greatly reduced list. Many apps I've found links to on the net, which people recommended, are simply not in our store. Even free apps, for example Google Earth.
But the most glaring omission is the Games category... yep, not a single game available to South African users.
So, to get an iPhone here requires a 2 year contract and another $300 on top of that for the 8GB version, so it surely isn't cheap... and yet I can't even make a custom ringtone because only music downloaded from the iTunes store can be used... I could do that on my very first Nokia phone which was a dinosaur w.r.t. technology compared to the iPhone.
I honestly don't understand it...
So, what help do I need?
I need to find out who I can contact at Apple to reason with regarding the content of our iTunes store. I find it unacceptable that people who hack their phones have a FAR better experience than people who do the right thing. So, if you work at Apple and read this or you know someone at Apple that could perhaps help me find the correct person/people to talk to about this, then please please send me a mail with the appropriate details. My email address is [email protected] (yes, I'll even post my email address on a public forum )
I don't think I am being unreasonable to expect a good level of service for a high end product, and at this point I am really unhappy with the service. Not the customer support etc, in fact the people I've had contact with are helpful, except that they cannot provide me with the information I need.
If you can help, then thank you very much.
Take care.

Hi there.
Thank you neuroanatomist for the info on creating a ringtone. I'll try it.
I should perhaps have mentioned that I have tried all the official channels, including contacting support and sending feedback over the last couple of months. The support people sympathise but can't really help me and I haven't received anything w.r.t. the feedback I have sent, more than once.
I'm now turning to the other users in the hope that someone can get me into contact with a person/people inside Apple that might be able to shed more light on this.
I've already contacted our local distributors and my mobile phone provider and they have told me that it is Apple and only Apple who decide what is available in the store.
W.r.t. licensing etc, I suspect that there may be some legalities involved here, however it's not like we are on a different planet - we get the same DVDs and movies and TV programs here as everywhere else - just not on the iTunes store... So once again everything points back to Apple and not to local laws. As far as I know our laws w.r.t. media are pretty standard and mostly based on UK law, but I am no legal expert.
I would even be happy to get a "we know it's not great, we're working on it", or a "it may take some time, but hang in there" ... but I haven't even been able to get that... which is extremely frustrating.
Take care,
Emile.

I am current in Sotheby's Africa and trying to FaceTime my daughter who also has the same ipad as me. My son in law also has the ipad. Despite using my daughters email, I cannot get through to her or my son in law. When I hit FaceTime I can hear the ringing tone, but after a while it comes up saying my daughter is not available, but she is sat by her ipad in the UK. I have checked everything is working so what can I do now to get through to her, especially for Xmas day.

Lack of music/apps in South Africa

I know this topic has been discussed before, yet there never seems to be a satisfactory answer.
http://www.thyon.com/blog-entry/items/apples-lack-of-games-music-movies-tv-in-so uth-africa.html
The lack of availability of music, games and other apps on the iTunes store in South Africa makes no sense. Does anyone know the correct channels an individual would have to follow to make this aware to the higher ups at Apple? I know it wouldn't be difficult at all to get a large number of South Africans behind this change. Having music available for purchase on the iTunes store would be massive here, and this lack of availability does not seem to be caused by South African laws, but rather a lack of action from Apple. This issue seems to have been ongoing for years now.
I don't think wanting to spend money to purchase music and games legally should be such a problem for Apple to remedy.
Any ideas as to how we could tackle this would be awesome!

Its not worth for Music at all.
You cant shuffle / play the next song / forward the song until you tap the screen to unlock the auto lock. (obviously we can set the autolock off)
Music in Play, iPhone is in standby (screen off by autolock or whatever), how do u forward the song ? Nothing provided
You cant jump to next song....Unnnhhh
Way outs most welcome...
Even in lock mode, double click the home button - you'll get a volume control, a pause/play button and a reverse and forward button.
All explained in the iPhone manual.

VAT calculation in Import pricing in Africa

Dear Experts,
I'm configuring a Import Pricing procedure for my African client where the Scenario is as mentioned.
1.Cost(Base Price) = 100
2.Insurance = 10
3.Freight =10
4.Customs duty = 10
5. IDF Value = 10
6. Vat = 14% on (12345 i.e on 140)
How can this scenario be mapped? As in Import pricing, Tax code is Zero. And there is no Tax procedure defined in SAP for Africa. If I create a Tax code with 14%, it calculates Tax on the Base price & not on the Total of "Step 1 to 5" as per my requirement.
I have checked a similar scenario for VAT calculation in Import pricing in Thailand. Can it be used? if so with what changes or what are the steps involved to meet the above requirement.
Kindly reply, if any one has worked earlier on this scenario.
Regards
Chitra

Hi Chitra
You are aware I take it that Africa is continent and not a country?
You won't find anything in SAP for "Africa" in the same way that you won't find anything for Asia.

Hi, I am planning a trip to South Africa (I live in Canada) and would like to know if I'll be able to use my Ipad there and what do I need to do to be able to have wi-fi or 4g access? Anybody can help me?

Hi,
I am planning a trip to South Africa in Nov/Dec. I live in Winnipeg Canada and own an Ipad wi-fi cellular. I would like to know if it is easy once in South Africa to use my device the way it is (i.e. with its existing SIM card etc). Or do I need to acquire a different SIM card? Also in order not to pay a fortune for the service is it better to acquire if needed a SIM card only once there? Also if I need a different SIM card where does one go to get one in South Africa? I have never travelled anywhere other than across Canada with my ipad (I am a fairly recent owner of such a device) and could use some help as to the best way to be able to use my machine in South Africa safely efficiently and at a reasonable cost.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you

Also in order not to pay a fortune for the service is it better to acquire if needed a SIM card only once there?
Check with your carrier about roaming charges. They are usually prohibitive. Best to get a local SIM.

White screen 3GS only when phone locks but I am volunteering in Africa so need help

Hi everyone.
This is my first post on communties. I have a white screen on my 3GS. It can be rectified by resetting the home but as soon as the phone is locked it goes back to white but I can take a photo of the homescreen (can tell by sound), phone will ring etc.
After reset the phone functions completely normally until locked. This all started after IOS 5 upgrade, briefly became normal for a few days after IOS5.1 but now back to white screen probelms. I have restored to no avail.
I have read Brad's suggestion it may be an LCD problem but seems stranges as you can reset the phone and the LCD is fine until it locks.
Any ideas and or fixes, please bear in mind I am in Africa for a year so no Apple stores around.
Thanks in advance, as the phone is 2 years old I am willing to open it up if required but would need advise on how/what tools required.

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.
Try all of these.
If these fail, then:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

CMYK settings in Photoshop cc (2014) for Print in South Africa

I am new to photoshop and print and need to know what CMYK settings are best for printing purposes in south Africa. I am using Photoshop cc (2014) Latest update. On Mac. Project is aimed at a poster (420mm x 594mm) - roughly street pole size. Thanks!!

You should take advice from your print provider. They should know which CMYK settings are right for their printer/press, ink and paper, according to the task. They may recommend RGB with a good working space. In any case, none of it is any use to you unless you have a calibrated monitor.
