Can iphone 5 preorder through iphone apple store app port numbers or only process upgrades?

can iphone 5 preorder through iphone apple store app port numbers or only process upgrades? for example, can you setup a new line of service to an existing verizon account and port the ATT number over using the apple store app on iphone?

I have been waiting for a post like this.  Just ordered mine from AT&T and the tax is close to $52. At an 8% mark that also equals to $649.  I think they are charging full retail sales tax.  I called AT&T and they couldn't explain it to easily they started saying that there is an extra luxury tax but I think they don't know it's just full retail tax.  They also said that it's just a hold on my card by final charge will be processed when the phone gets shipped.
I checked fine print of sprint and AT&T. Ecause when you upgrade online with AT&T you don't pay tax but it states that it will be collected at the time it shipped. Sprint charges $24 which is almost half but also claims that there might be an extra tax when it shipped. 
I am puzzled by the whole issue.  But 25 bucks won't get me not to order my phone.  I was able to get credit from my carrier because of the competition in the form of statement credits.  Ordered 2 phones and een after crazy high tax I got one for red plus some :). Tax is crazy anyone else order it an have this issue please share

  • HT4528 I am due for an upgrade on 5/23 and I wanted to find out - can I bring my old iphone 4 to the apple store and get a new iphone 5 through the apple store instead of verizon?  Will it cost the same to get the phone as through Verizon?

    I am due for an upgrade on 5/23 and I am trying to find out if I can get my phone through the Apple store?  I have an iphone 4 and am hoping to upgrade to a iphone5.  Just want to make sure if the price is the same as if I went to a Verizon store to upgrad. 

    I don't believe they were looking for a trade in, they are due for a subsidized Verizon upgrade. I think the bringing the iPhone 4 was for setting it up and transferring as Verizon does not require you to swap your previous phone for an upgrade.

  • I took a download to the Apple Store App and now it only displays portrait. Why?

    Help Mr. Wizard!

    Double click your home button, then swipe the bottom bar to the right.  Likely you will the the lower right orientation button with a lock on it.  Click on it and you should then be able to change the orientation of the screen.
    If for some reason you have mapped the orientation to the hardware button just slide the mute/orientation button on the side of the iPad.

  • Reserving iPhone through Apple Store App

    I just reserved my iPhone 4 through the Apple Store App and it showed 299 for the 32gb when I reserved it, but the email I received showing I reserved it, says I reserved the 32gb iPhone 4 at a price of 699.00. SAY WHAT! Anyone have this same problem? Will I be held to that price or pay the 299? Thank you for replying.

    Same thing happened to me. Used the app and entered my info (cell no zip code last four of ss). Didn't get any kind of confirmation in the app that my order was placed but got the email. I'm thinking that the fine print is just Apple covering their butt in case something happens (natural disaster, launch delayed, etc). I thought a reservation is just that - a phone is held and reserved for you. Is that the way it worked for previous launches of iPhone and the iPad? I am assuming that I can get the 199 price at the store when I pick it up

  • I had to change my email for my apple account on my iPhone 4.  when I go to add an app or update an app it shows the old email.. so I can't delete apps for this to work becuz I would have to delete my apple store app and it won't let me

    I had to change my email for my apple acct on my iPhone e 4.  When I go add an app or update an app the old apple email comes up.  I can't delete an apple store app.  So how do I refresh the apple store app?

    Hi skippy2012trev,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you updated your Apple Id and password but now you are being prompted for the old information in iCloud. You are on the right track by changing the Apple ID back to the previous email address temporarily so that you can sign out. You should not need to verify the email address. After you edit the Apple ID back to the old email address and then sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, edit the Apple ID back to the address you would currently like to use. There is no need to change the password again, only the email address, unless you prefer to update the password again.
    If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support
    Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
    Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    Tap Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
    Scroll down and tap Sign Out, then tap Sign Out to confirm. If you're using iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
    Tap Keep on My [Device] or Delete from My [Device]. In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
    Cheers,
    Joe

  • IPhone 4 ordered through Apple Store app costs $699?!

    I used the new iPhone Apple Store app to order my new iPhone 4. It checked my eligibility and said it would be $299, but the email I received said $699! It did the same thing for my wife and my father.

    I called AT&T today and was told 3 times, i would have to pay $499.99 for the upgrade being that I was in one year of my two year contract. So I qualify for partial discount.
    I called AT&T a second time, later in the day just to make sure it was $499.99
    I just got back from the AT&T store. They wanted $699.99
    I walked out of the store without a complaint. This is "BAD" business practices.
    I refuse to pay $699.99 and might just cancel the iPhone all together.
    *Do not pay $699.99 no matter what.*
    Did you try the *639# option on your phone? It tells you if you are eligible for an upgrade. I only say this because I'm also in year one of my two-year contract, but when I dialed that number, I got a text saying I am eligible for an upgrade, paying an $18 upgrade fee. Additionally, when I entered my AT&T info when reserving a phone today, my price was $199 (for 16gb).
    Now I'm worried that I'll get there next week and they'll make me pay $399.

  • IPhone 6 preorders available now via iPhone Apple Store App

    I'm in Chicago and have been waiting to order the iPhone 6 via Apple's website store.  At 2:56 AM CT it is still unavailable.  Took the chance on using the Apple Store app on my iPhone and it is available and I placed my order with no problems.

    I started to order mine right at 3am EST and the site wasn't up so I tried the app about 5 minutes later and was able to get the preorder for my iPhone 6 Plus 128GB and email confirmation right away. Looks like they may be having issues with the main website. Good Luck Everyone!

  • I cannot access Apple Store app from iPhone 4

    I cannot access Apple Store app from iPhone 4.
    We're sorry, the Apple Store app is currently not supported in the country associated with your Apple ID.
    I am in USA and my correct address is on my account.

    you can't, but you can simply ignore it. but if you REALLY want to delete it, call apple customer support to ask for a deletion. though, you'll need the password and security questions of the old account.
    you can manage your apple ID's at: https://appleid.apple.com/

  • The orientation of the apple store on my iPad appears to look limited and like an iPhone.  I deleted the apple store app and reinstalled but no luck.  Also the screen doe not rotate

    My apple store app will not change orientation when I rotate my iPad and appears limited .  I deleted the app and reinstalled but didnot fix it

    The "Apple Store App" is an iPhone app and while it works on the iPad, you cannot change the orientation of the app. You can enlarge it by tapping on the 2X in the bottom corner, but you cannot rotate the app on the screen.

    Hi! My phone speaker is not working, so I cant hear people when they call me. I bought my iphone 4s con February 2013 in the Grand Central (NYC - USA) Apple Store. I would like to know if I can take it to an Apple Store in Spain so they can fix it or change it. Or I need to find a way to take it to the US, where I bought it.
    Thanks!!!

    You will need to return the phone to the US. iPhone warranty is only good in the country of purchase, with the exception of the EU.

    Take it to an authorized service center or Apple Store in the country where the phone originated.  Apple does not sell iPhones in Pakistan, nor will they ship them to Pakistan.
