Buying Applications via the IPhone 4

I have been using ITunes successfully with my IPod Touch for a few years now. I've just got my 1st IPhone 4 and everything seems ok, but I'm having a problem downloading applications from the App store. Keep getting the error unable to connect, but I'm able to search and view the App Store, the problem only happens when I try to buy / download.

Have you tried accessing your account details from within Settings|Store? When you buy an app it should try give you a popup for your iTunes password but it sounds like it is dropping at this point.

Slow WI-FI transfer using native YouTube application on the iPhone 3G

Hello all,
I have seen several posts similar to the one that I'm making now, but since my newest discovery brings a small twist to the issue when compared to the other cases, I decided to make a new thread.
My issue is with the native YouTube application for the iPhone 3G, as it is mysteriously slow. A lot of people mention that lowering the router to B/G standards will remedy the issue. However, I do not think this issue is related to this because when I launch Safari on the iPhone and go to apple.com/trailers the speed is lightning fast. I did some WI-FI comparison testing:
PC: XP Pro SP3 running all drivers at newest releases incl. updating motherboard firmware.
iPhone 3G: Firmware v2.1
Connection: 10 Mbit/2 Mbit
Safari cookies, history, and cache cleared after each attempt on both iPhone and PC. Also, I closed Safari, ran CCleaner (just to make sure all temporary data was gone), and reopened Safari on the PC while Powercycling the iPhone 3G between each attempt.
Movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psYClvuONG4
Length: 1 min. 45 sec.
Load time on PC using Safari: roughly 25 sec.
Load time on iPhone using Safari: roughly 4 (FOUR!) min. 30 sec.
After this I directed Safari on both iPhone and PC at:
Movie: http://www.apple.com/trailers/magnolia/splinter/
Length: 1 min. 38 sec.
Load time on PC using Safari: roughly 5 sec. (for the small size as iPhone format does not seem to be available when browsing with a PC)
Load time on iPhone using Safari: Roughly 10 sec.
I do not know what is going on here. Do the size and/or compression of the two movie formats differ so much from each other that this could explain the normal transfer speed via apple.com/trailers? Or is there an issue with the YouTube application? Maybe the YouTube conversion system? Could it be a routing and/or hardware (on either ISP, ISP carrier or YouTube itself) issue in case there are "localized portals" for YouTube depending on the user's geographical location?
In general, speed is not an issue. Performing speed tests towards a localized server in Denmark using my iPhone give excellent results compared to the connection speed I am paying for, and I do not have issues surfing elsewhere via the iPhone. It is only when I use the native YouTube application on iPhone 3G that my transfer rates are poor.
I really want to solve this problem before I go nuts...
Best regards

About a week ago YouTube stopped connecting on my iPhone 3G -- as far as I know nothing changed on my end. The YouTube application seems to function normally, bookmarked videos are still there and play, for example, but it will not update, not search, etc. I get a message that YouTube is not available.

I backed up my iphone 4 and did an upgrade and changed my Apple ID and password but my phone has not recognised the new ID to upgrade my apps via the iphone.

I backed up my iphone 4 and did an upgrade and changed my Apple ID and password but my phone has not recognised the new ID to upgrade my apps via the iphone. How do I get rid of the old Apple ID when it comes to upgrading apps.
I have been into setting>store and signed out and signed back in and it still asks for old ID and password.

Everything you've had up to now has been tied to your old Apple ID. You cannot switch it over to a new Apple ID. You should contact iTunes support to help you with this:

If I can buy apps on the iPhone 4, and then I want the same apps I bought it in the new iPhone that I have. Can or not?

If I can buy apps on the iPhone 4, and then I want the same apps I bought it in the new iPhone that I have. Can or not?

If the device has the same Apple ID signed onto the iTunes & App Store, then you can download any apps purchased under that Apple ID to that device.
I thought you were asking about a game and game statistics being shared between two devices with two separate players. What I said about that is that if it is under the same ID, then the game is going to have the same statistics on both devices, and any updates to those would be reflected in both places. So, two different players wouldn't be able to have separeate statistics if they were playing under the same Apple ID.

Can I delete a genre of music via the iPhone 5S, Can I delete a genre of music via the iPhone 5S

My wife and I share an iTunes account via an iMac, but we have different tastes in music.
Can I remove unwanted Genres of music via the iPhone?
Is it something that has to be done via the iTunes program and if so how?

Hello RingosDad
You can do both. One-way is to set up syncing on your computer to either sync the genres or just the specific music within a playlist. Also if you are happy with the music on your iPhone, besides that one genre, you can navigate to that genre and then do a swipe from right to left to bring up a delete option for that song.

Terminate job applications via the APIs in Oracle HR

Hello, we're trying to terminate a few thousand job applications which have been hanging
in the database for many years.
Looking for a programmatic solution we looked at
hr_application_api.update_apl_details
but it seems it cannot close the application, only update the "details", as the
name suggests. We also tried
hr_person_type_usage.update_person_type_usage
to change the person type to ex applicant, but, while the person type is
correctly changed, the applications remains open, creating some inconsistency
in the data.
Is there any solution to properly terminate these applications via the public APIs?
Thanks

did you tried already the p_termination_reason parameter in the application api?

I would like to buy my boyfriend the iphone 5. He has an upgrade - but can I purchase it for Christmas now and get money back when he activates and uses his upgrade?

Or purchase an Apple Gift Card for him to use to get a phone at Apple after Christmas. He gets the card as the Christmas gift and can go get the phone himself. It would cost you the same amount of money.

Changing applications on the iPhone

I was trying to add applications to my iPhone and even if I checked them in iTunes they did not sync. Do I have to drag each application to the iPhone screen in iTunes for syncing to work? Thanks.

Were all apps purchased/downloaded with the same iTunes account with iTunes on your computer?
You have Sync Apps selected under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and when selecting an app that is not currently selected and installed on your iPhone followed by a sync, the app is not installed on your iPhone? If so, any error message provided?

HT201272 I am a resident of Ecuador.I used to buy applications from the us apple store with an ecuadorian credit card and my address in Ecuador.

I am a resident of Ecuador with an ecuadorian credit card.I used to buy applications from the us apple store and updated them whenever updates were available with no problem at all. Since approximately a month,I am not able to purchase any new applicaton or update the old ones.Apple send me back to the ecauadorian apple store were there are almost no applications and where I can not even update the ones I have.
How can I solve this problem.? Before I was able too purchase applications anywhere in the world.This is absurd.
Can anybody help me please?
Regards,
Refurioso

You can't, you will need to be in the US with a US billing address (and credit card issued by a US bank) and iTunes account to be able to buy/download from the US store - the terms of use of the US store say (and other country's stores will be similar) :
The App and Book Services are available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the App and Book Services from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance.
If there are apps that you want that aren't currently in the Ecuadorian store then you can try requesting that they be added, but ultimately it's the app developers that will have to grant Apple a license to sell them there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

Pop mail via the iphone...

Is the best way to set up a pop account via the iphone using the cwmx.com outgoing mail server?
Its seems that mail works then it doesnt...

Email account mailboxes and messages are not synced between the iPhone's Mail client and your computer's email client. The iPhone sync function for email accounts is for transferring email account setup information only from your computer to your iPhone.
A POP account is designed to be accessed with an email client on one computer or device.
An IMAP account is designed to be accessed with an email client on multiple computers or devices with the ability to store the account's Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk mailboxes on the server with each email client used to access the account. This provides for keeping all server stored mailboxes for the account synchronized automatically with each email client used to access the account.
This is not possible with a POP account.

HT1688 does the insurance we buy when getting the iphone covers broken screen?

Just broke my screen... Need to know if the insurance we buy when getting the iphone covers broken screen? If not what are my possibilities and cost to have phone fixed or replaced asap?

Apple doesn't sell "insurance". If you purchased AppleCare+ with your phone, it's covered (up to 2 incidents) with a $49 deductible.
If you purchased insurance, you need to ask the insurance company.

Hi...
Make certain you are typing in the correct credit card number, selecting the correct expiration date from the pop up menus and are using the correct Security Code from the back of your credit card.
Make sure your billing address is the same on your credit card account that you entered under Billing Address.
Now click Done bottom right side of the App Store window.
