De-activate fee?

I activated my iPhone, but then my parents took it back....... Will I have to pay a deactivation fee, like you do on any other cingular phone?

I hate to say it, your parents can keep your iPhone and maintain a 9.99 a month fee and remove all other features from the phone and bypass any cancellation fee.
They might also get the cancellation fee and pass that cost on to you.
Better to cowtow to your parents and start sucking it up.

So I looked for a copy of CS2 to put on my second hand IBM PC.

    The Links provided to you are in English language..Do you see them in any other language? (if yes, screenshot please. )

  • HT1414 my iPhone was stolen but I got it back. Now I can not activate it coz i don't have the Apple ID nor the password from the thief. How can i log in my own Apple ID to activate my iPhone?

    Hi,
    My iPhone was stolen before, but luckily i got it back.
    Now i cannot activate it with my own Apple ID because the system kept asking me to enter the previous user's Apple ID (yes, the theif)
    So I cannot use my iPhone now.
    Please kindly tell me what to do and how to do it. I want to use my iPhone with iOS 7!!
    Thank you.

    Doesn't matter. And if they have any property at all, it's worth the $50 filing fee for small claims court in most places.
    If nothing else, filing could force Apple to disclose the email address and other information that was used to activate the stolen phone and lock it, leading to the identity of the thief or someone else involved in the crime.
    For me, it would be well worth the $50 even if all I got was an attachment of future wages. Since i don't have the legal right to just shoot the bastage, it's the next best thing.

  • My iPhone 3GS will not activate following update to iOS 6.0.1

    Hi guys,
    My mate has just been given a new iPhone 3GS, which is locked to the Vodafone network. He has bought a $2 Vodafone SIM to ensure a smooth transition.
    The issue we are having is that following an update of the iPhone to iOS 6, the iPhone would reach a screen where the following error message appears:
    "Your iPhone could not be actived because the activation server is temporarily unavailable. Try connecting your iPhone to iTunes to activate it, or try again in a couple of minutes. If the problem persists, contact Apple Support at apple.com/support"
    I plugged in the phone to iTunes, and received the following error message
    "We are unable to continue with your activation at this time. Please try again later, or contact customer care."
    I contacted the carrier, Vodafone, and was sent through various stages of the support team who confirmed what I though: I have to restore the iPhone. I completed the restore, and even upgraded the iPhone to iOS 6.0.1 in the process.
    Upon the iPhone restoring itself, the exact same problem reoccurred. My mate is pretty confident that the iPhone has not been jailbroken, so I am seeking the support of someone here in Apple who may have some idea.
    Can anybody please offer their assistance regarding this issue? From what I've read of the forums, it would appear that this is not an uncommon occurence, so hopefully somebody knows what the issue is.
    Looking forward to hearing a response.
    Kris.

    LOL! - you poor bugger, Ognyan!
    I'm starting to serihously think this phone has been jailbroken... I've got a senior technical support advisor at Apple who is working on the case. He has gone through everything he can possibly think of, but won't take "no" for an answer.
    At the moment, he has logged everything with the Engineering Department, who is going to look into it further using the IMEI number and see what they come up with. If worse comes to worse, Apple will apparently replace the phone for a fee. The problem is that it is 800+ days out of warranty...
    Anyway, we'll see how we go. If anybody has got any ideas about this, please continue to provide answers. I appreciate all responses

  • I previously purchased Lightroom 5 I have a new computer and want to install and use the full version of this instead of paying the monthly fee. How can I do that?

    Hello,
    I previously had a Mac Book Air and just recently purchased a Mac Book Pro. I previously had Lightroom 5 on my Mac. I would like to have the purchased version running on my new Mac and not pay the monthly fee to use Lightroom. I have the product key in an email from when I purchased Lightroom. I also have the trial version of Lightroom installed on my computer but my trial version has expired. How do I validate the Product Key?  Thank you!

    If the trial version is not presenting you with an option to activate it then you might be best off just uninstalling it and reinstalling via the download link(s) below...

  • $30 upgrade fee... really?

    After standing in a Verizon store for 30 minutes (8 employees, 6 customers... yet somehow no-one could help me) to simply buy an iPhone 5s in a box I was told I owed the price of the phone plus a $30 upgrade fee.  I asked the associate what that was and he told me it was for all of the assistance required to set up a smartphone.  I noted that I required no assistance - I was buying it in the box and would set it up later - but he said that didn't matter.  Shocking.
    What's the point of the upgrade credit if it's going to be clawed back with no say on my part?  I left with a bad taste in my mouth.
    I was a pretty happy Verizon customer until yesterday.  If any of you marketing types are reading this, be aware that I've moved from Promoter to Passive, heading towards Detractor.  If you want to do the right thing, refund my $30.
    In the meantime you ought to get rid of that stupid nickel-and-dime policy.  Reduce the upgrade credit if you want, but don't give an upgrade credit and then say "just kidding".
    My 2c.

    Unless you were purchasing the phone at full retail price, I don't think the store reps are allowed to sell you the phone in the box only. They have to open and activate it in the store. At least that's what my experience was when I purchased the Tbolt and later when I brought in a slightly used Galaxy Nexus. I would have preferred setting up my Gmail account at home when connected to wifi instead of using the cellular data connection. Instead they had to activate theSIM  cardand pphone before I left the store. I think I did manage to skip the Gmail account sign-in on the Nexus, but not on the Tbolt.
    If you were purchasing at full retail price, the $30 Upgrade Fee doesn't then apply.

  • Bought iPhone 5 w/ different line, want to activate it on my line

    I pre-ordered an iPhone 5 for myself from Apple's website using my fathers #, because he has the upgrade on our family plan. However, I want to activate the phone on my own line, not his. How would I go about doing this? Will I run into fee's/charges for doing it this way? I tried to transfer upgrades on the Verizon site here, but it wouldn't stick. Thanks

    you just call verizion and tell them you want to activate it on the line you want to activate it on.. people say do not turn it on before you do that or you will have to go to a verizon store to get a new sim card. (but others have said thats not the case including vzw people on this board)

  • $500 equipment termination fee after paying $350 early termination fee?

    Hello,
    For some reason, my previous posting now says it is an unauthorized one and it cannot be accessed. I'm posting about a case of my girlfriend who upgraded to iPhone 5S 32G ($299.99+26.62) on December 23, 2013 with the 2-yr contract and had to cancel on January 7, 2014 since she had to leave the country. It would have been nicer if the cancellation was within 14 days, then she could simply cancel the contract and return the device without the early termination fee $350. Unfortunately, it was not the case, and she had to pay the early termination fee $350, the upgrade fee $35, and the amount for the last month usage. Everything was paid off as the terms and clauses said, and until that time, everything was fine: paid the gross amount of $299.99+26.62+350+35+more unfortunately, but kept the phone at least.
    The bad story came today via an email from Rosee (removed) ([email protected]), a person from Collections Department of stayconnectedwireless.com, saying that my girlfriend will be charged the sum amount of $500 due to terminating your Verizon wireless account without returning the equipment to the store. What??? She looked at T&C very carefully before the unfortunate early termination and paid all the huge amount of fees Verizon described in its T&C for termination. The early termination fee is usually considered to account for the discount you get with the 2-yr contract. At the time of early termination, Verizon either wants the device back or the early termination fee paid, not both. Since my girlfriend already paid off all the fees, the email sounded totally weird. What will be your reaction if you paid $299.99+26.62+350+35+more which is about the full retail price and the store says you have to return the device or pay $500 more?
    I had to search over the web to figure out what happened.

    I understand how much anger this person Glenn P. had for these "Stay Connected Verizon Wireless" stores that are seemingly genuine Verizon Wireless stores but just premium retailers unless you look at the signboard very very very carefully. In fact, I could realize the fact today since they pretended to be genuine from many aspects. Now after reading the posting and thinking, what happened becomes very clear to me. They are not genuine Verizon Wireless but pretend to be the one, and they put a disgusting term on their receipts: if any 2-yr upgrade or new activation is cancelled within 7 months of contract, there is a $500 equipment termination fee unless the device is returned to the store in perfect condition. What this term essentially forces is, if you terminate between 14 days and 7 months, you pay all the phone price and the early termination fee properly, but you also need to return the device to this disgusting "Stay Connected Verizon Wireless" retail store or pay $500 to the "Stay Connected Verizon Wireless" retail store.
    I would like to suggest a few things.
    0. Look at the store names and the receipts very carefully. There are stores that are seemingly Verizon Wireless but just retailers. And the receipt may say something absurd. I believe this term is a sort of duplicate penalty (thus not legitimate) that rips off more than the retail price of the phone.
    1. Do upgrade or activation from the genuine VERIZON WIRELESS. If you upgrade or activate a phone from these "STAY CONNECTED VERIZON WIRELESS" retailers and if you happen to cancel the contract between 14 days and 7 months, you have to lose your phone or pay additional $500 even if you paid off the already-huge $299.99+26.62+350+35 which is about the full retail price.
    2. Verizon Wireless, I believe the company, as an influential company in the US, should carefully control the dealer quality and impose reasonable T&C for the dealer. The genuine Verizon Wireless is reasonable in that sense: either take the device back or charge the early termination fee. However, this unethical retailer does not. They first pretend to be the genuine store in many ways, put an unreasonable (perhaps not legitimate) term with small letters on their receipts without explaining the huge difference, and try to take your PAID phone away if the contract is terminated between 14 days and 7 months. I believe a reasonable T&C has to be enforced by Verizon Wireless for this retailer, or they have to be punished if they resist.
    I may have to be ripped off $500 for not paying too much attention on the store name and on the receipt term which nobody will read by trust on Verizon Wireless, but no other people should suffer from the same pain.
    How do you think? Thanks for any input from people or Verizon Wireless representatives.

    Hello,
    Thanks for answering. My posting had been blocked for some time, so I thought Verizon simply did not like the posting. Now I discovered this posting was re-opened.
    To clarify, I have been using Verizon for 7 years, and I'm well aware of all the Verizon charges, fees, and T&C in the process of properly upgrading phones multiple times. The point is that, the retail store "STAY CONNECTED VERIZON WIRELESS" in NY has deceptive signboard and interior that are sufficient to enforce or confuse customers to believe the store is a genuine Verizon Wireless. And, they inserted unreasonable and unacceptable term on the receipt about the termination (very problematic between 14 days and 7 months). However, they did not notify at all about those (3rd party and termination). If I knew the store was 3rd party, I would have read T&C very closely. Actually, you can see that all the angry yelp reviews by Glenn P. also point out the deceptive signboard part. The person also thought the store was genuine Verizon Wireless until the collection department contacted for the astonishing $500. Later, basically they softly threaten to report for a negative record if you do not return the PAID phone or pay the extra $500.
    Apart from the deceptive signboard and interior, I want to simplify the example for the unreasonable T&C as follows. As a customer, I paid for the discounted phone price $299.99+tax, the upgrade fee $35, and the early termination fee $350. At that point, the genuine Verizon Wireless does not take the phone away and all the business is done since the early termination fee compensates the discount. When the weird retail store kicks in, they suddenly require the phone back or $500 equipment termination fee paid because the termination was between 14 days and 7 months from the contract. I don't think they truly have a legal right or basis to do that since it is a duplicate penalty which is also very excessive, but I just respected the one ugly sentence on the receipt about the unreasonable $500 equipment termination fee. Anyway, the full retail price is $749, and the total payment with this retail store became easily more than $1,200 or I have to return the PAID phone (~$700) to them. What an easy business from their sides! I believe Verizon Wireless, once you know about this unethical retail store, you should take a proper action. I would understand a bit more about special T&C if they provided special discounts as Best Buy or Walmart, but the discounted price was exactly same with Verizon Wireless. Is there any justification about the $500 equipment termination fee? Possibly you can have $100 or so to minimize the damage as a 3rd-party store, but not $500.
    When I contacted the collection department of stayconnectionwireless.com, the person tried to justify $500, but I just told one thing: I know the genuine Verizon Wireless does not charge the weird equipment termination fee once the early termination fee $350 is paid. The person became silent after my comments because I knew Verizon's T&C very well. However, I had to pay $500 to avoid all the potential legal issues. Normally the good way to deal with this should be to pay first and take wrong things back.
    My first expectation was that, Verizon Wireless would take a reasonable response on my posting. However, two postings on this Verizon forum were immediately blocked, so I had to file a complaint on FCC (Federal Communications Commision) about "Stay Connected Verizon Wireless". I don't know how much legal obligation they can impose, though.
    Now, since you re-opened my posting and replied, if your company situation allows, I hope Verizon Wireless can investigate this retail store's T&C and advise not to do that. They might be the only store that excessively charges such fees as authorized 3rd-party dealers. If they resist and if I'm one of the board member in Verizon Wireless, I would control the quality of authorized 3rd-party retail stores and take proper actions to retain Verizon's credibility. I don't know whether Verizon Wireless will do that.
    Please contact me if more information is needed. Thanks.

    How do I renew my membership to reactive the Develop module? I paid my montly fee. I have never seen this before.

    If it asks for an activation to activate the develop, it must be a CC version installed. If you use a CC version you have to pay you for your selected plan like monthly or annually.
    If you should have the stand-alone version because you don't have/want a CC plan, then you probably have installed the wrong version - the CC instead of the stand-alone.

  • Bought Iphone! But don't want to use it for calling! How to activate it ???

    Hi,
    just bought an Iphone but don't want use it for calling is there a way to activate it without having a contract with at&t or so! I mean I am not sure if there is a way to do this if anybody knows if it's possible and knows how to do it, I would be very THANKFULLLLLLLL!!!! I need help prettty fast thanks so much!

    Why start a new thread on the same topic as before the answers will all be the same you have to activate the iPhone through iTunes and sign a contract with AT&T to activate the iPhone otherwise you wont be able to take pictures or listen to music or use other features, didn't you do any research on the iPhone before purchasing it??? Sounds like you need to return your iPhone where you bought it and just pay the restocking fee and call it good.

  • Confused about my monthly bill/activation fee?!?!?

    Finally got an iPhone 4 on August 30th... paid $120 to activate it and for the phone! Which I thought was a VERY good deal. I've had the phone for 12 days no and decided to see where I'm at on my bill. I was told by the representative who helped me that I was only going to have to pay around 90 bucks a month... 60 for the monthly bill and 30 for data package! Sounded do-able. UNFORTUNATELY, I'm checking my balance that I'm going to owe on the 29th and it says I'm going to owe $160.86. I am so ******, I can't afford this!
    TEC Asurion $9.99 - Asurion 09/05 - 10/04 (month in advance) $9.99 WHAT IS THIS?
    Cellular Service - Activation $35.00 AND THIS? Since I already paid the activation fee when I bought the phone...
    Nationwide Talk & Text 450 08/30 - 09/04 
    $11.95
    9.99/mo / 6 days on new plan
    Nationwide Talk & Text 450 09/05 - 10/04 (month in advance) $59.99
    I don't understand why I'm getting chaged seperately for that.
    Can anyone PLEASE explain all of this to me??? THERE IS DEFINITELY A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 90 DOLLARS AND 160 DOLLARS. UGH

    Prorated means you only pay for the number of days in the month you actually had the plan,  For example, if your normal bill for one month was $120.00 and you actually only had the phone and plan for 15 days of that month, you would only be charged for 1/2 months use, or $60.00.
    But like Tidbits said, Verizon bills you in advance, so, (again assuming, for example only, that your normal one months bill is $120.00) if you had the phone and plan for 15 days of the current months billing cycle, Verizon will charge you (on your 1st bill only) $60 for the 15 days of the current month,  and then $120 for the next months service, or $180. (Plus the cost of the phone, activation fee, + taxes and any accessories you purchased, unless you paid cash at the time of purchase)  Obviously, the 1st months bill is always larger than normal.  The 2nd bill you receive will be whatever a normal months service will cost you. (in my example, $120 plus taxes and fees, but of course, yours will be whatever plan you agreed to) According to your post, it looks like about $100 plus taxes and fees.

  • Factory-unlocked iPhone 4 will not activate

    Hello,
    I bought iPhone 4 (Factory-unlocked) from Australia and brought back to Japan.
    I tried to activate the phone first time and it asks me to insert SIM.
    So I inserted the trimmed SIM (Japanese). But the iTunes says "The SIM card inserted is not supported."
    However, the trimmed SIM with proper adopter works fine with Japanese phone.
    I tried this with many other SIM in Japan but failed to activate iPhone 4.
    I also called up Apple in Australia and gave them the IMEI number to confirm the phone.
    They confirmed that the phone is proper and factory-unlocked one from Apple.
    I also bought the so-called "Activation SIM" and tried activation with this SIM.
    This time, it let me sync with my iTunes successfully but cannot get any cellphone signal obviously.
    Now, I can see menu and contents on the phone but it keeps shows "Waiting for activation".
    So I changed the SIM to Japanese SIM but again, it does not activate nor sync to iTunes.
    Could someone help?
    Do I need Australian SIM?
    Can I activate with Australian SIM (that supports roaming in Japan) in Japan ?

    Hi I am too living in Japan and bought an iPhone 4 back from Australia in September. I had activated it using a Jailbreak app, activation successful.
    Now the problem, you are NOT able to use an iPhone in Japan that is not officially documented from Softbank. This means that Softbank has every IMEI number of each iPhone to be used in their system. When roaming, in Japan let’s say with an AT&T iPhone from the USA, this will work, because the system recognizes that it is a foreign number in the system and then applies the roaming charges to your Home Counties account. I had to go and pay an RF test registration fee to have my iPhone IMEI number placed on a list that Softbank accesses when registering, without the registration fee from the RF test certification company, the number is NOT added to the list… Softbank will then tell you it is NOT allowed to be used in Japan. This cost me more then paying 6 months of subscription and services if I had just opened a new account and contract with Softbank for a new Japanese iPhone 4.

Is it possible to trade over or change the licence into iMac version for a small fee. If not , can I partition the hard drive of iMac and install windows and also photoshop elements? which is the best alternative ? why?

    A Photoshop Elements license is good for both Mac and Windows so it should be just a matter of downloading the Mac version and using your current serial number to activate it.
