Best place to get an iphone5: 1-Apple Store, then who? -Fry's Target, Att/Verizon/Sprint ?

Hi, with the whole iphone 5 debacle and with people pre-ordering on the 14th still getting the run-around. What do people think is the best way to get the iphone (best, not necessarily fastest)
Apple is still getting phones every day - so that should be first option for anyone looking.
ATT stores are at least giving specific dates, and apparently stopped the pre-sale when they knew supply was limited
It seems Target also was also clear and honest on communication
Any experience on Fry's or radio shack?
It seems that even waiting a little longer sounds like a smarter option than waiting for BestBuy, at least to send a message and vote with your money.
I think the fact that the senior vicepresident would aprove the message that went out, shows either willingness to misinform customers or lack of understanding of how sales were managed even inside his organization. (The whole thing of "However, there is no doubt that the fact you pre-ordered a phone from Best Buy means you will be able to buy it before any consumer trying to find one on their own." was ill-advised to say the least)

I called my local frys electronics and was pleasantly surprised with the news. They still had one in stock from their initial shipment! Upon calling I also was informed that they receive many more aphone phones than any other carrier. I would say call your local frys and ask if there is any in stock. If not, either wait a few days and call again, or ask to be put on the waiting list. Good luck! I think frys is your best bet!

Where's best place to get original Airport card?

I was wondering if anyone could tell me where's the best place to get an original Airport card? I've just bought a new iMac and want to connect my old eMac to it. I've got a BT Homehub wireless router but just need an original Airport card for the eMac downstairs. I'm a bit new to the computer game and just wondered if anyone could recommend a decent place to buy accessories.
Thanks

Thank you guys for answering my question. I've just got one more now Will an American airport card still work on an English Apple Mac. I feel silly asking, as I'm sure it'd be fine, but I know American videos don't work in our players, and DVDs have different regions (although I've found the codes to stop that, he he). Thanks again.

Best place to get a genuine N95 8GB screen

I cracked the screen on my Nokia N95 8GB at Reading Festival this year. The phone works, but screen doesn't. Where is the best place to get a new/used original/geniune Nokia screen to fit? I'm happy to do it myself.
There are a few on ebay, but i'm never sure whether the non-geniune Nokia screens are good or not.

Who knows? Some may be genuine, but the people selling them have no right to do so.
Also, if you do any damage whilst replacing this yourself, you'll invalidate your warranty for other issues that might be covered by it, so spending a little to have it profesionally fixed may benefit you in the long term. Even the oldest N95 8GBs in Europe are still covered by warranty until at least October 2009.

Where's the best place to get code converted between ActionScript 2.0 and 3.0?

Where's the best place to get code converted between ActionScript 2.0 and 3.0?
If I just have occasional (very small) projects, what's the best way to get them done really fast by somebody who knows both 2.0 and 3.0?
Thanks, Dan

You have pretty much answered your own question... hire someone who has fairly thorough knowledge of both AS2 and AS3.
I have heard there are some tools for converting between AS2 and AS3, but I have no knowledge of them other than having heard that they cannot convert all things.... which makes sense because there is not always a one-to-one relationship to how things ae done with AS2 and how they get done with AS3.

I don't have SSN or any other U.S. IDs. So I cannot make pre-order for iPhone5. Do I still have chance to purchase an iPhone5 at Apple Store on 9/21/2012?

Hi, I'm an international student and I don't have SSN and other IDs which are needed when making pre-orders.
I think Apple Store will save iPhone5 for those who have made pre-orders and choose to pick up at Apple Stores.
So, I'm wondering whether Apple Stores have enough devices for those who haven't made pre-orders.
It takes more than two hours for me to get to the nearest Apple Store.
I really want to go home with my new iPhone. I'm a big fan.....

All you can do is phone the store and explain your position. They could probably take a credit card payment over the phone as a last resort.

If whatever is wrong with your phone falls under the hardware warranty, Apple will replace your phone, with a refurbished unit, at no cost to you. Make an appointment at an Apple store.

I am at present in Spain. I have OS 10.6.8 on my applepro laptop. How can I upgradeto Mountain Lion? I can't get on to the apple store, for some reason.

I am at present in Spain. I have OS 10.6.8 on my applepro laptop. How can I upgrade to Mountain Lion? (and then to Mavericks). I can't get on to the apple store, for some reason.

Open the App Store application and use it to download Mavericks.
No need to get Mountain Lion first.

Can a unlocked (no ATT, Verizon, Sprint plan) iphone 5 bought from an Apple store utilize a phone call while simultaneously checking email, turn by turn, web pages etc.? I know the ATT version can and the Verizon version can't, so can the unlocked version from Apple (which is not yet available) do it?

Where is the best place to get support for iPhoto?

Hello,
I have an issue that is listed here, in regards to iPhoto being very very slow, this is something that started to happen a while ago and I have been all over trying to find something to resolve this issue.
6000+ Images, it used to work fine but now it will not Quit, it just hangs. You can send some images via email then it will crash. I have tried all sorts of suggestions from various forums etc, but nothing. Clearing Cache's etc, nothing seems to help.
Is there any place I can get help from, or should I go directly to Apple for some suggestions?

William,
You have come to the right place -iPhoto forum. It's the best place I know to get the help you need from knowledgeable iPhoto users.
When you say that iPhoto runs slow and quits, that sounds like a memory problem. How much free space do you have on your boot drive? The OS needs about by 15% free and clear disk space to use as virtual memory. An iPhoto library of 6000 can put a real drain on the system.
Apple recommends closing down other applications if you are getting sluggish response from iPhoto to free up memory.
Working in iPhoto you can also speed things up dramatically if you close all the rolls in the library source window, except the one you want to work with.
If you got the zoom set to give you big displays in that source window then minimize the zoom in the organize mode. I photo creates fasting loading thumbnails for browsing through your library. If the zoom is set all the way up, iPhoto has to load the full size file in the library for viewing in the source window. If it has to load all your photos full size in the source window you will get slow response and iPhoto is apt to quit on you

Can I still buy photoshop cs6 from the adobe website, or do I have to find it somewhere else, and what would be the best place to get it?

Im looking to get adobe Photoshop cs6, but with Adobe pushing the Creative Cloud, can I even get the program from the website? If not, where would be the best place to buy it?

As John says, they don't make it easy to find. CS6 is now almost 3 versions back with no more updates being rolled out for it.
As an alternative to purchase, you might want to consider the Photography Plan which includes PS CC and LightRoom for $9.99 per month. At least, that way you'll be eligible for updates as soon as they become available.

I want to get the iphone 5s the day it comes out. Do you think the best way is to go to the apple store or wait at Verizon. I know when the iphone 5 came out here that they sold out at Verizon. The closest apple store is an hour away.

I want to get the new iPhone 5s right when it comes out. I was just wondering what you guys thought. Should I go to the apple store (closet one is an hour away and always busy) or should I go to my local Verizon store. I know when the 5 came out last year they ran out of the iPhone 5. What do you think my best bet will be??

There's really no way anyone can even guess, since we have no idea what sort of stock will be available and how Apple will distribute it. It's not impossible that your local Verizon store will not have any units at all on the first day, or they could have a quantify. We just can't know. If your Verizon store can't give you some idea, you'll just have to make your best guess. Note that people are already lining up at Apple Stores in at least a couple of cities according to reports, and started doing so earlier this week.

Where is best place to get cheap but good condition Powerbook G4 Alum?

I like these and wondered if eBay is the best place, where you just take your chances as to what you're going to get, or if there is a secret Mac supplier for excellent condition Alum P12" powerbooks?
Oh yeah, cheap, too.

Where are based? I'm selling one.
