Calling All Iphone 3G Users! Calling All Iphone 3G Users & Experts.

I am heading over seas. A friend is about to purchase a I-phone for me & sent pictures. Included are both colors. According to these pictures,disregarding any accessories or background images. Is this iphone FAKE ? ? ?
- Please Help Me Guys & Gals!...Pictures are below

Some of these are definite knockoffs.
The second pic down, with the USB port/battery on the bottom - there is to much space above the home button. On a real iPhone it is centered in the black band.
Same thing on the next pic, the slide to unlock is up way to high.
The white one has something funky going on with the ports on the bottom. Also, notice the USB cable in the middle pic, it seems to be full size USB on one end as expected, but the other end is not the wider Apple ipod connector - it can't be and stay hidden behind the USB plug.
Also, iPhones don't come with all those accessories, not even a slipper case.
Another poster, in another thread talks about an "iPhone" that a relative brought back from China. iTunes will not recognize it, and his PC shows it as 2 removable drives that total 1GB and a web cam.

  • Help: Basic API call randomly crashes.  Enlightened experts may know...

    Here is the function and it is called once a second. The try-catch was added later.bool UserInfo::IsCurrentUserInteractive()
    uid_t uid;
    gid_t gid;
    /* Getting the username of current consoleuser. Note
    * that if the username is NULL then that means that
    * no user is presently logged in. We do the lookup
    * using the SCDynamicStoreCopyConsoleUser call.
    * First Argument: The dynamic store to use to lookup
    * the console username. We only need a temporary dynamic
    * store so pass null.
    * Second Argument: On return this will have the
    * UserID (UID) of the new user. We pass in a uid_t variable
    * so we can get the return value. This value isn't used but
    * is included for demonstration purposes.
    * Third Argument: On return this will have the
    * GroupID (GID) of the new user. We pass in a gid_t variable
    * so we can get the return value. This value isn't used but
    * is included for demonstration purposes.
    * Return Value: The console username expressed as a CFString.
    * This string must be eventually released with a CFRelease call.
    CFStringRef Name = NULL;
    // This call has crashed before
    try
    Name = SCDynamicStoreCopyConsoleUser(NULL, &uid, &gid);
    catch(...)
    return true;
    if (NULL == Name)
    return false;
    CFRelease(Name);
    return true;
    This can run for hours, being called every second without a problem. However eventually it will crash. Here is the crash log BEFORE I added the try-catch.PID: 148

    2. Why isn't the try-catch trapping the exception and preventing the crash?
    3. How can I prevent this crash?
    The purpose is simply to know if there is an interactive user. By getting the console user you can find out. If there is no console user, then clearly, there is no interactive session. I know there can be fast user switching on Macs, although I do not know how to do it, so it is possible for an app to be running as a user who doesn't have a GUI because they didn't log out, they just switched out to another user and all their apps are still running. I am going to make all the parameters null since I do not use them, this was basically a cut and paste job from some API documentation with sample code.

    If you can't even start with that assignment, there is no need to go to such extreme lengths as to kill yourself.
    Just don't go into programming, find other areas of interest and a different career path.Or, you know, talk to your lecturer, teacher, or tutor. As opposed to just give up.
    I failed my first-ever CS assignment. Got 7/20 for my Haskell and then -7 because it didn't compile.
    Considered dropping my degree, spoke to the tutor who pointed out a couple of book chapters to read, got 90% or higher in the next three tests, then ended up with an honours degree four years later. Everyone has hurdles or brick walls to negotiate, but it doesn't mean you're not cut out for a career there. It's not a case of natural talent, just persistence and practice.
    Oh, and mods - sorry for the 'irrelevant humour' before. I shan't try it again until I've got my post count to my previous levels and I then can join in all the mocking by regulars. ;)

  • I need a spreadsheet App for my iPhone

    Hi All,
    I need some expert advice.
    I am looking at downloading an iPhone App that allows me to generate spreadsheets that I can also sync or send to my mac and amend it vice versa.
    Does this exist? I have been looking at Pages but I have read reviews stating you can not copy / amend from iOX to iOS and vice versa.
    I'd appreciate any advice anyone can offer.
    Many thanks.
    Les

    Perhaps I'll wait until Mountain Lion then before I purchase Numbers. I did try and search for 'QuickOffice' but it just brings up the App 'Documents 2', which I already have and I know you cannot amend spreadsheets in that.
    You've hit the nail on the head though I need to be able to create a spreadsheet on my iPhone, transfer it to my Mac, amend it some more and then be able to send it back to my iPhone and finish off. I have a few file sharing Apps which are good but you just can't update any workbooks.
    Thanks again.

  • Upgrade to LR 3.3 from 3.2 and lost all export presets.

    Any chance I will be able to recover my  (many) expert presets? They are all gone since upgrading to 3.3, and I really hate the idea of starting again from scratch.

    I've looked at preference settings. Checkbox is NOT selected to store presets with catalog. I also looked at file location, and the user experts folder is empty.  I have no idea where they went. I need to look, but unfortunately, I do not think I have a good back up of these settings.Lesson learned there. I will continue to look for the files using searches, etc. but it appears they are gone. This really stinks. Several of them took a good deal of time to get "just right".
    Thanks,
    Mike

  • I can call out but all incoming calls are going directly to VM with no signal that I missed a call or have VM. I can send/receive text messages from other iPhone/iPad/iTouch users, I am assuming this is really "iMessage." Is it apple software?

    I have spent hours on the phone with Apple and AT&T. I went thought reset, on/off, etc, etc with both companies to no avail. Each company pointed fingers at the other....as being the source of the problem.
    Problems: Suddenly ALL  incoming calls were going directly to VM with no signal I missed calls and/or had VM. I was also unable to receive all Text Messages...Oddly, I could send text messages to anyone (even non-apple users but I could not receive their responses)........then I when I got home I started receiving text messages from other apples users ONLY. I assume now - iMessage kicked in and I could text (send/receive)  other iPhone/iPad/iTouch users ONLY. ....yes, I could still (send) text messages to my husband's blackberry (he received my messages fine) but my phone would NOT receive his text respones.
    Finally, I googled the problem and found this community where other people have had the exact same problems! One person said he "turned off 3 G" which was the solution for him....so I did the same and VIOLA! My problem  solved! Nevermind the fact that I pay for 3G and cannot use it....so here's my question, if 3G is the problem on my phone is this an APPLE issue or a NETWORK problem? Do I purchase a new phone and slip in my same SIM card and hope the same does not occur or do I get a whole new SIM card and phone? What is the long term resolution to this problem?
    I am happy however to find that my problem is NOT an isolated incident and wish Apple or AT&T had told me this is not so uncommon because I thought (based on the baffled response from Apple) that this has never occurred before.  Where is Steve Jobs when we need him?

  • System Folder errors after I changed all permissions on HD to read & write

    Hi,
    Two things may have caused probs on my new 2010 iMac (Snow Leopard), and Applecare is shut so I would really appreciate some help as I have urgent work.
    1) INCORRECT PERMISSIONS
    I have been stupid. I clicked on Macintosh HD and changed all permissions to read & write because I wanted to be sure I could open and edit all documents on other computers.
    I ran Disk Utility Repair Permissions from the install disc, but I am still getting system error messages, and my HP printer won't work.
    The first message, in Repair Permissions, said: Warning: SUID file System/Library/Cores has been modified and will not be repaired. I have read a support doc on this which says no need to worry but I don't like it and would like to fix this.
    More importantly, my HP printer won't work, displays error beside the document in print dialogue box.
    Deleting the printer and readding it didn't work, so I downloaded new drivers and tried to install them, which is when I got the second system error message: System extension System/Library/Extensions/BJUSBLoad.kext was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it or contact product's vendor for an update.
    I checked the permissions on the file and they were still wrong despite Repair Permissions, allowing everyone to read & write. So I have now clicked on the entire System folder and changed the permissions to: System read & write, admin read only, everyone read only.
    Will this fix it or do I need to do something else, such as check ownership, to make sure all permissions on the computer are now correct?
    2) MEMORY STICK SHUT DOWN MY IMAC
    Additionally (though I don't think this had anything to do with my problems), I inserted a Sandisk USB memory stick the other day and it immediately shut down the computer. When I inserted it into my Macbook it initially rejected it and gave me a message saying the device wanted too much power so it had ejected it to prevent damage to my computer. When I tried again it was OK. I totally reformatted the stick in case there was something harmful on it, but should I now bin the stick as faulty? Scared to use it again.
    3) IS IT BEST TO REINSTALL ENTIRE SOFTWARE?
    If I do a reinstall of all the software from the install disc, will it wipe out all my data, such as Mail, documents, bookmarks and other apps?
    I would back-up, but if I try and back up files on my external drive it will automatically do a Time Machine back-up and I don't want to do that in case it backs-up all the corrupted files. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind starting again just to be sure all is well.
    Expert advice would be very much appreciated.
    Thank you
    Sarah

    Oh, silly really. I was in a hurry and working on docs that I needed to take to the office and open on another computer there.
    But when I checked the permissions on the doc it said I could read & write but everyone else was read only.
    I thought if I opened it on another machine I'd be stuck with read only access and not be able to work on there. I think I couldn't change it, so I thought to avoid any future problems like that I would change everything on machine!
    Yikes. Won't do that again

  • HELP!!! I did everything i could all day to fix this and i can't upload my video to youtube or export file because it keeps saying "sharing requires more memory to be available" How do i enable my movie to be uploaded or exported?

    Question 1 / Plan A : When i finished making my movie project in iMovie 11 on Mac, i tried sharing it at all ways such as youtube, export, etc... it kept popping up: "sharing requires more memory to be available". I searched up all day on the internet on how to figure this out, i followed all of their advices but nothing seems to happen. btw i already got permitted for longer than 15 mins video on youtube. it's also weird that my computer has more than 600GB free space. So how do i upload my 2 hour video to youtube? and how do i avoid the popup of "sharing requires more memory to be available"?
    Question 2 / Plan B: If plan A won't work out, i definitely don't wanna do this all over again because i took centuries and effort on this. What im trying to do is divide them to multiple projects, and maybe it will let me upload it because of it's file size? So how do i copy parts from a project and paste it to another project or event library so it would be easier for me to finish it in iMovie?
    Question 3 / Plan C: If plan B won't work out, how do you screen record my movie with audio? What im trying to do is to record it by screen using quicktime and divide them by parts. I know how quicktime and soundflower works, but when i tried it, but the problem is that soundflower and quicktime audio was very crappy and broken at some point. So how do i record good quality audio with screen recording?
    Question 4 / Plan D: If plan C won't work out, i guess the worst way to do this is to record from my phone, its such a bitter idea but i want this to be published in good quality. i am so tired and i took so weeks finishing this project and the ending results just ****** me off. Id be glad if someone has an idea on this problem im occurring. Hope y'all people and mac experts understood on what im struggling about. leave a reply on those of you who might have an idea on solving this problem!

    When You select share, are you able to get either of these two windows?
    First one is Export As
    Second one is Save as QuickTime
    I looked at earlier post and see You have 4GB RAM,  maybe try a smaller format to convert it to,
    then save it to file first before trying YouTube.

  • I tried transferring my iphoto library from my old macbook onto my new macbook pro, but when i open the new iphoto, it seems to have transferred ALL images ever used on my old macbook.  now iphoto won't let me do anything to fix!!

    i tried transferring my iphoto library from my old macbook onto my new macbook pro (via external hard drive), but when i open the new iphoto, it seems to have transferred ALL images ever used on my old macbook. so i tried to just delete all those images so i could try a different approach to transferring, but the new iphoto won't let me do anything and every time i try to delete anything it crashes (since the image amount is so high).  please help!!

    See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1229?viewlocale=en_US - I doubt that it will solve your problem, though. You may want to post on the iPhoto forum - that's where all of the iPhoto experts hang out.

  • Just set up Time Capsule and imac is backed up.  Can I back up ipad and iphone too?  If so, how do I do it?

    Just bought AirPort Time Capsule (2TB) and my imac 10.7.5 is backed up.
    Can I back up the information on my iphone and ipad - both are iOS 7.1.2?
    On AirPort Utility I am not able to open other Wi-Fi Devices.  TC indicates ipad and iphone are wireless clients.  
    Not sure what I do.  Thanks.

    iOS devices like the iPhone and iPad back up to iTunes on your computer....or....to iCloud, if you have enabled that option.
    If you have a Mac and have Time Machine backups enabled, then the iPhone and iPad backups stored in iTunes on the Mac are backed up to the Time Capsule.
    In other words, the iPhone and iPad back up indirectly to the Time Capsule, if you have Time Machine enabled. They do not back up directly to the Time Capsule.
    For more information on iOS backups, please see this Apple Support document:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    Or, you might want to post in the iPhone and iPad support communities.....where the iPhone and iPad experts hang out.

  • Show all running thread(s)

    I know this is an easy question for all of you thread experts.
    I am currently working with swing applications and still learning more about threads.
    now my problem:
    I just want to display all threads that are running when I execute my application.
    I search and found this link:
    http://jug.org.ua/wiki/display/JavaAlmanac/Listing+All+Running+Threads
    does all threads found in a thread group?
    Is this a good example to show all running threads?
    If you have a good solution or link please let me know.
    Thanks in advance. :)

    ThreadGroup itself is just a container for a number of threads. There's a root ThreadGroup which includes every thread running by the JVM.
    As you want to just list all running threads, it's a good solution until you see that it omits a thread. You can try this in several cases to ensure no running thread is ignored.

  • 3gs dead, Hard reset, DFU, recovery in itunes. all not functioning.help pls

    I just bought a rechargable portable battery and i tried to plugged into my iphone
    a second later, my iphone just died
    i thought it was just a small case, a hard reset will solve it
    but it didn't!
    hard reset, DFU, recovery in itunes, i tried everything
    and the laptop cant detect the iphone either
    dear experts... can i have an answer please?

    This re-chargable battery includes the "made for iPhone' Apple certification?
    If so, please provide the make and model of the re-chargable battery and a link to the manufacturer's website or to the retailer that sells this product that provides some detailed info about the product.
    other than hard reset, recovery in itunes is there any other possible methods?
    No.

  • HT204380 How does a user of multiple Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac laptop) designate which devices will ring when an incoming Facetime call comes in.  If all three are online, should they all be able to accept an incoming video call?

    A friend of mine has an iPhone with a cellular data plan, a Macbook Pro, and a mini-iPad.  She's been using Facetime, but says that all of the devices used to ring at the time of an incoming Facetime call.  Now only her iPhone rings.  How do you set whichever device you want to ring?

    James: I agree. Please keep them shorter.
    The answers to both questions are no.
    The iPad is NOT a computer replacement. It is a mobile device.
    The iPad can not stream tro the iPhone nor an iPod.
    Hope this helps....

  • Linux user keyboard woes

    Got my first Macbook (in fact my first Mac-anything)about a week ago and I'm really enjoying the experience.
    However, I'm an affirmed Linux addict and one of the first things I wanted to do was to set things up so I could multiboot OS X and a few of my favourite Linux distros.
    While the majority of things went smoothly, what Linux people call the Apple keyboard bug really upset me.
    So, if I pick the Linux (Penguin) icon from the rEFIt menu, the Macbook will almost certainly not function at all when I try to make a choice from the subsequent Linux menu.
    I was able to partially overcome this problem by using a usb-keyboard (on the advice of other Linux users).
    However, as I'll be travelling with my Macbook next week, it won't be as convenient to be resorting to a usb-keyboard to get over this reluctance on the part of the Macbook keyboard.
    Can Mac users/experts provide any further information on how best to cope with this difficulty and what plans, if any, are afoot to eliminate it?
    Thanks
    Paul

    I was similar when first starting to use Linux.. possibly because I had problems getting my wifi drivers installed and because I had more time for gaming when I first started playing with Linux than I do now.
    However, I decided I'd 'make the switch' some time ago - copied my thunderbird mail and my firefox bookmarks over onto a shared fat32 partition, and started messing around with Arch.  I made myself get everything set up - gaim/thunderbird/firefox/whatever else I needed, then just stuck with it and made sure not to reboot into windows for a while. I think I used... maybe KDE at the start, then went to E16 and finally settled just now on xfce; started with a graphical login but I was doing too much fiddling around with ATI's drivers for that to be terribly reliable, so I've recently gone to console-login + startx.
    My advice is to just set it up, then force yourself to stay in Linux for a while.  Eventually I became more used to this environment than windows, and just having such a powerful command line in comparison makes me use things like cygwin whenever I'm back IN windows now.  Recently had to reinstall Windows because of some problem or another, and decided to do a simple, barebones install - nothing but the gaming apps I want.
    So yeah... I guess the point of this long-winded reply is to just get yourself booted into an environment you like in Linux, and keep yourself there for a bit.  Eventually it'll be like a second home.
