Deal Breaker for iPhone

Not being able to perform THE MOST BASIC FUNCTION of sending and receiving photos to other cell phones would have been a Deal Breaker for me. Since this is one of the most basic of functions, it didn't even occur to me to check on that particular capability. Puts back the real meaning of "assume."

You have 14 days from the purchase date to return it for payment credit - less a 10% restocking fee if the packaging is opened. If you are a new at&t subscriber for the iPhone, you can cancel your contract with at&t within 30 days of the activation date with no penalty.
Certainly if an important function to you, and something you use often, you discovered this within the first 14 days after the purchase date.
Or you can accomplish the same via email for recieving and sending MMS.

  • While looking to upgrade to a new MBP, found out latest version of iTunes does not support wired syncing of iCal and contacts. syncing of these must be done through iCloud. This is a deal breaker for me. are there any workarounds?

    While looking to upgrade to a newer MBP, found out latest version of iTunes does not support wired syncing of iCal and contacts. Syncing of these must be done through iCloud. This is a deal breaker for me for several reasons. Are there any workarounds or do I have to go back to a PC with my tail tucked between my legs?

    When you say wired syncing, are you meaning between an iphone and your mac?

  • CC is a deal-breaker for me. I'm off to look for similar software. Skip

    CC is a deal-breaker for me. I'm off to look for similar software. Skip

    First, let me freely and proudly confess.  I do not use Adobe products to earn my living.  I'm a retired military guy within six months of qualifying for social security.  I'm not likely to matter in anyway within Adobe's marketing schemes.
    I started using Photoshop way back on Windows 3.  I started using Indesign when Quark was the darling of printing shops.  I switched to Dreamweaver after less than happy experiences with competing software . . . and HTML5 wasn't even a blip in the common imagination.  Now, I own Creative Suite Master Collection 6.
    Many of us purchased Adobe software which they abandoned within a year or two or three.  That's on us.  Didn't think Creative Suites would be another one.  That's on me.
    I'm an economic non-entity.  I know that.  I use Adobe software, when the opportunity arises, to support nonprofits.
    Whether or not I switch--is that an upgrade?--to "Creative Cloud" doesn't matter.
    The writing was on the wall when Adobe stopped publishing print manuals.  They must have eliminated a host of printing and distribution costs with that move.  Now, they seem to have eliminated the cost of publishing and distributing DVDs.  Sound move . . . from a CFO's point of view, I would think.
    Doesn't mean I won't switch/upgrade to the "Creative Cloud."  Since I normally upgrade at the issue of each new version, I'm still weighing the benefits/cost to an old guy who goes back almost to Photoshop 1.0.  I just don't buy the hype that Adobe implements this model for the benefit of all their old and potential customers.
    I just don't know.
    Maybe I'll try it out for a year.  Or, not.

  • Sidebar;  a real joke; DEAL BREAKER FOR LEOPARD

    The Sidebar is impossible to read. I am 58; use special glasses for work on my
    23" Hp Monitor on my dual 2.0 G5; MBP 15".
    I can't read the sidebar. The Icons and Font size is RIDICULES; I NEED TO BE ABLE TO MAKE THOSE SO I CAN READ THEM.
    Apple are you listening?
    This is a deal breaker for me. I have installed Leopard on a Dual G5, MBP ; 20" Intel Imac. I will be going to my Carbon Copy Cloner backup and move them all back to OSX 10.4.10.
    So SAD; SAD; SAD. Especially when this where Apple usually shines.

    Download "TinkerTool" from www.bresink.de
    Ignore the Warning about possible incompatibilites - the program will not harm your system.
    Then, in the "Font smoothing" options, set to:
    "Turn of font smoothing for font sizes 144 pt and smaller"
    close the application
    log out and log back in.
    or/and, if this still Works:
    Create a Directory in your home Folder called ".MacOSX"
    inside there, create a textfile named "environment.plist" with the following content:
    <pre>
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
    <plist version="1.0">
    <dict>
    <key>QDTEXT_ANTIALIASING</key>
    <string>0</string>
    <key>QDTEXT_MINSIZE</key>
    <string>144</string>
    </dict>
    </plist>
    </pre>
    log out and log back in.
    Does it look better then ? Dont know if that helps but give it a try.
    Btw. I thought I did hear something about 10.5 offering "resolution independent" display - but find nothing related to this.
    Anyone else noticed this too ?

  • The Samsung Galaxy S6 might not be water resistant - would that be a deal breaker for you?

    Last month, we heard that the upcoming Galaxy S6 would not be water resistant, thus missing one of the important features of Samsung's former flagship S5.
    The Samsung Galaxy S6 might not be water resistant - would that be a deal breaker for you?

    Hello datgeekgirl, 
    I hope that you are enjoying your Samsung Galaxy S6! It is discouraging to hear that the ordering and pickup process may not have been as smooth as expected, as it seems you may have charges on your account for a two year agreement when you selected the Sprint EasyPay option. I am sorry if this experience may lead to your returning the phone. 
    Sadly, I was unable to locate this purchase using the information you registered with the forum. I am sending you a private message to gather further details surrounding this purchase.

  • IPhone4 will not pair with a Prius - a deal breaker!

    I cannot pair my iPhone4 with my Prius. Tried everything - bluetooth on and off, disabling 3G, rebooting the phone soft, rebooting the phone hard, rebooting the Prius. Nothing. This is a deal breaker for me. The iPhone4 is being returned.

    The iPhone 4 sounds every bit as crappy when paired with my Prius as the 3G and 3GS did. Well... I take that back. I can hear the caller slightly better. But the caller still can't hear me for all of the noise, drop-outs, and muffled sound. I still get a screeching noise when I try to pair, too.
    After many calls to both Toyota and Apple techs about the 3G, I gave up and got a Blueant S1. It's not the ideal solution, but at least it works.
    Note that other people are successfully pairing iPhones with their Prii, so I really don't know why mine is having these issues.

    <Personal Information Edited by Host>

    Your question isn't at all clear. Is this a second-hand phone which has been locked by the previous user?  In that case only the previous owner can unlock it, either by providing you with the account ID and password, or by removing it from his list of devices (as he should have done before selling it) - please see http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4515
    If you unable to contact him to do this then I'm afraid you will not be able to use the device - there is no other way of unlocking it at all.
    You should if possible return it to wherever you bought it and ask for a refund as in this event the device is completely useless.
    You should not post serial numbers or any other personal data here; I've asked the Hosts to remove it.

  • ANY UPDATES FOR IPHONE 4S to fix WIFI ISSUE

    ANY UPDATES TO FIX THE WIFI (UNABLE TO JOIN NETWORK) FOR IPHONE 4S? THERES A NEW OS FOR IPHONE5, WHY NOT BOTHER TO FIX THIS ISSUE FIRST???

    Ever since I upgraded my iphone4 to ios6 I can't get stable connection with home wifi. I am sitting less than 5 feets from the router. My iphone either cannot find the hotspot or getting very weak signal. And it's so weak it will break every two minutes. My ipad is running ios5 and it connects instantly. My ipad can find dozens of hotspots; my iphone can't even find my home wifi.
    Yes, I have tried every solution on the web, changing my router setting, reset network setting, recover to orginal settings.... NONE OF THEM WORKED. It is obvious a software problem. IOS6 does not support my router as it did in IOS5.
    Seriously, if Apple does not fix this problem, I'm gonna switch the system.

  • E1200 - Terrible download performance was a deal-breaker

    I was trying to decide between this model and the Netgear, both low-cost, basic wireless routers. My last Netgear had died rather earlier than I expected (about 4 years) so I gave the Linksys a try.
    The installation experience started out easy, but quickly turned frustrating. At first I thought everything was working, but after a few hours I noticed that web sites that normally loaded very quickly were taking quite a long time, and file downloads sometimes became painfully slow. A quick check on speedtest.net showed that I was only getting 0.5-2 Mbps, which is about 1/20th what CNet's lab tests showed in their review, and about 1/10th what I was getting on the wired connection to my desktop. Strangely, upload performance was fine at 4Mbps (the same performance as the wired desktop saw) so I was pretty convinced it was some configuration problem and not (say) signal strength.
    Diagnosing the problem wasn't made any easier by Cisco's software, which makes basic setup very easy but hides details like channel settings behind something called "Wireless Protected Setup" which was never clearly explained anywhere. (There is a "Wireless Protected Setup" button on the unit itself, whose purpose I'm still not clear on.) I turned Wireless Protected Setup off in order to access the usual wireless settings, but nothing I did seemed to make much difference.
    Technical support from Cisco was also not helpful. The live chat feature went all right until my network connection flaked in the middle of something we were trying, and at that point I stopped being able to give them information even though I could see what they typed. After not hearing from me for a few minutes they assumed I had fixed the problem (!) and closed the ticket. Given that we were diagnosing network issues, that seems like an overly optimistic assumption!
    I should note that Cisco's software has its own speed test utility, which is nice, but I couldn't use it on my laptop (where the problem was) because Cisco's installer complained that I needed to install using an account with administrator privileges. This was bunk, since my account definitely has administrator privileges, so I'm not sure what was going on with that; in any case speedtest.net worked fine so I stopped worrying about that part of the problem.
    Finally I went to a local Best Buy and purchased a Netgear. Five minutes later I was getting 20Mbps down, 4Mbps up, very much in line with what I would have expected. I'll be returning the Linksys shortly. Possibly this unit was simply defective, although I would have expected both download and upload speeds to suffer in that case.
    Overall, if the unit had performed according to spec, I would have been fine with the other limitations (tech support, awkward software) given the low cost, no-frills nature of the product. But the performance was a deal breaker. I reserve one-star reviews for products that are completely nonfunctional, intentionally fraudulent, or actively dangerous, but the e1200 certainly falls near the bottom of the range.

    The Linksys E1200 Wireless-N Router lets you access the Internet through a 2.4 GHz wireless connection or by using one of its four-port switch. As you mentioned in your post that you were getting a good speed on wired connection, however the speed on your wireless computer was not as good as you expected.
    In this scenario, you could change the channel on your wireless router to either 1,6,9 or 11 and keep your router in an open space, if possible somewhere at the top.
    The recommended security mode is WPA2/WPA mixed mode. Any other lower security type set on the router will reduce the speed on the wireless computers.
    Also, if you have more than one wireless computers, see if you are getting the same speed on the other computer or not?
    Transmission speed on wireless devices with a N-Series router and N-Series adaptor is above 100mbps which means router is capable enough to handle the speed that you get from your ISP. It's just the proper configuration which has to be done in order to get the optimum performance.
    Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a feature that makes it easy to add devices to your wireless network.  The WPS button is located either on the front or back panel of your Linksys device.
    For more information WPS: Read the following article http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=80&vw=1&articleid=17336
    Incase, you have any difficulties operating Cisco Connect software, you could download the latest version of Cisco Connect from the linksys website. http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/support/routers/E1200
    Also, depending upon the hardware version of the device, we need to ensure that the firmware version on the device is the latest one. The firmware could also be downloaded from the same web address. http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/support/routers/E1200

  • HT201198 how much do i pay in indian rupee for applecare protection ( 2nd year extended warranty ) for iphone 5c

    how much do i pay in indian rupee for applecare pack ( 2nd year extended warranty ) for iphone 5c

    Right. So you're telling me that Apple has left someone in charge who is totally screwing their customers' experience and no one at Apple will help reign them in and set them straight?
    I guarantee you that she's not the only person who's had this experience and it **** well sours me from buying another iPhone if I know it won't be taken care of if something goes wrong.
    I've posted this to let Apple know there's something woefully wrong with their partner and to get that fixed as well. I know Vodafone is the one I'm supposed to deal with; I just want that to be improved.

  • Are there any apps that install animated lock screens without jail breaking my iPhone 5?

    Are there any apps that can install animated lock screens without jail breaking the iPhone 5?

    I don't know of any way, except perhaps by using an animated GIF or PNG as your wallpaper. I've never tried it, though.
    I don't recommend jailbreaking your phone, voiding your warranty, and risking ruining the phone just for this feature, however - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743

  • 5.7 for iPhone: Smarter and Faster Chat

    At Skype, we work hard to incorporate your ideas to continue building a great app that helps you do more with the people you love, whenever you’re apart. In fact, on the Skype for iPhone team, we personally read each piece of user feedback and categorize comments by hand to determine what to work on next, so your input really matters.
    In the Skype 5.7 for iPhone update, we addressed some of the most common user suggestions. We can’t wait for you to download the new version to take advantage of the new features inspired by your feedback:
    Save and delete photo
    If you want to save a memorable photo to your camera roll or delete a sent photo from a chat, simply press and hold the image and the options will appear.
    Faster chat load time
    Now when you receive a notification and tap it to open the app, the message will be there waiting for you without any delays.
    Avatars for all chat
    You can now see all avatars for groups and people, and if they’re changed on other platforms, they’ll update in the app too so you always have the latest showing.
    People list UI improvements
    In 5.7, we’ve made it easier to find the people list search and filter options, so you can quickly and easily find the person you want to chat with and get started.
    Have a great idea that you want to share? Let us know via the new iOS Ideas group here in the Skype Community. If you’ve not yet downloaded the latest version of Skype for iPhone, you can get the update from the App Store – all you’ll need is iOS 7 or later.

    It still seems confusing about when this works and when this doesnt. Is there some sort of table we can refer to that shows this information based on the sending and receiving devices and versions?
    In fact, I didnt even get the link to open the photo in the cloud, instead I got a message saying it wasnt possible/compatiable (or words to that affect).
    We don't have such "file transfer compatibility matrix" yet. You currently cannot send files from Skype for Windows desktop to Skype for iOS yet. Skype for Windows desktop hasn't received the update yet to add support for the new cloud file transfer option.
    @Claudius
    I continue to shake my head in dismay at this, given that Windows is by far the most widely used desktop platform in the world...
    However thanks for taking the time to answer, its appreciated.
    But it does confirm that Im sticking with v4.17.135 on iOS. 
    I hope you can understand and provide feedback to your developers how totally ridiculous it is that users are forced to stay on old versions in order not to be locked out of such basic functionality as photo sending? Normally the first question developers ask is 'are you running the latest version'. In this case, its the latest version(s) that break the functionality.
    In addition, as a paid user for many years (10 years or more i think) owning two SkypeIn numbers what I havent seen is any roadmap or comment about when the numerous problems associated with receiving skype calls, voicemail, and call forwarding will be resolved?
    How long are paid users expected to wait?
