Can I switch back to my Iphone 3g until I get a case??
I activated my beautiful amazing Iphone 4 yesterday. I just couldn't wait. I am just very nervous about taking it around with me without a case. I'm gonna get a case in a week or so. In the meantime, can I somehow switch back to my Iphone 3g so I don't scratch or break my new iphone? Is it as easy as 1 2 3? Whats the procedure? Thank you so much.
You can't just go back and forth that easily. If your iP4 has been activated by AT&T, you'll need to have AT&T switch the sim (3GS and iP4 don't use the same size sim). You'd likely have to do this at an AT&T store, who sells cases for the iP4 btw. And since you live in NY, NY., there are likely hundreds of places you could get a case for your phone, so just get a case and avoid the hassle......

There are some great sources of information in the following article that might help you in resolving the issue at hand:
iOS: Understanding Restrictions
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4213
Particularly of note is the following:
You can enable and adjust Restrictions, or Parental Controls, on your device to prevent access to specific features or content on the device. Locate these settings by tapping Settings > General > Restrictions.
and
Additional Information
If your iOS device is missing a particular application or if a certain feature is not available, ensure that Restrictions are not enabled. Symptoms can include:
App missing from the Home screen (Safari, Camera, or YouTube for example)
Feature or service unavailable (Siri, Location Services, and so on)
Setting missing or grayed out (such as Mail, Contacts, and Calendar; iCloud; Twitter; FaceTime)
Important: Restrictions can also be enabled or enforced using a profile (typically installed when using the device for business or education purposes). You can check for installed profiles in Settings > General > Profiles.

Can I switch back and forth the same sim card between an old iPhone 4 and a new one never used in order to activate the latter? Should I use same Apple Account? Should I activate it via WiFi or iTunes? I am filtering on the MAC no and I cannot read that number from the new iPhone without having it activated??!!
All I want do is to have the new phone activated and then tested!
Ciao // MufftasYes, you can do that.

Can I switch back to my old iPhone from Droid?
So, I had an iphone for two years and loved it. When my contract was up, something possessed me to try a Droid. Well, now I am experiencing major remorse. I want my iphone back. I still have the old phone. Can I switch back to it? I know that Droid and iphone use different kinds of cards or something, so I know it's not as easy as replacing a sim card, but is it possible? How much would it cost? Thank you!!!
Before you decide to change back, bear in mind that the iPhone 3G is not supported for the latest iOS version so you will be out of the loop for some of the more recent features available to 3GS and iPhone 4 unless you upgrade your hardware to 3GS or 4.

I can no longer back up my iphone to my computer on selecting 'sync'. I can back up to iCloud but I get an error message telling me I cannot backup to my Mac. Can any one help? It's driving me crazy!
Hello joelfromn. charleston,
It seems you are unable to activate iMessage on a device with no carrier service. The following article provides information regarding activation issues:
If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime - Apple Support
Check your device settings
Make sure that you’re connected to a cellular data or Wi-Fi network. If you're using an iPhone, you'll need SMS messaging to activate your phone number with iMessage and FaceTime. Depending on your carrier, you might be charged for this SMS.
Go to Settings > General > Date & Time and make sure that your time zone is set up correctly.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

Can't switch back to 64bit mode in CS5!
I switched to 43 bit mode in CS5 clicking the checkbox in the info. section. I want to switch back but the check box is no longer visible! Where did it go and how can I switch back?
Get info on the application, not the folder.
Unless you deleted a lot of files, the switch will be there. -

How can I switch back and forth from Classic to Tiger
How can I switch back and forth from OS9.2.2 to Tiger without restarting? I want Classic as my startup system.
I think that the number of clicks to open a file is a rather shortsighted way to compare two operating systems.<<</div>
Well excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse ME!
I happen to think it's a pain to click twice on files when I'm used to clicking just once.
But Tiger is a nice operating system. I enjoy that it has much more capabilities than the OS9. I mean, Tiger keeps up with the advancing internet. My beef is really against OS9. I can open OS9 in Tiger but not Tiger in OS9. -
Can I switch my go phone iPhone 4 to an iPhone 6 witch already has a SIM card that isn't in use? Or do I have to buy a whole new go phone SIM card to fit the iPhone 6
Only if the SIM is a gophone SIM. If it is not a gophone sim, it will not work on gophone system. Go to a corporate store and they will give you the proper SIM to use on gophone service.

Battery running down fast using Yosemite, running the latest update 10.10.2. I think there is bug in this update. Please help me out or is there a way can i switch back to mavericks and how
1. Check the cycle count of the battery against the rated life for your model. The battery may be due for replacement. If the power adapter is connected almost all the time, the battery may need replacing even though the cycle count is not too high.
2. Follow these instructions, or these for OS X 10.8 or earlier.
3. In the Energy Saver preference pane, uncheck the box marked
Enable Power Nap while on battery power
if it's shown (it may not be.)
4. You can also try resetting the SMC.
5. Make sure your system is up to date in Software Update.
6. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center. -
can we copy back songs from iPhone to iTunes library, once if deleted from iTunes library ?
Have you not got a backup of your content ? iTunes will only copy back purchases that you made from Apple. For music from other sources you will need to find a program from another source which can copy them back from the phone - if you do a search on google you might find some. Or depending from where you got them from can you re-download them from those sites ?
