Does anyone no if Apple can wipe your phone if it has been stolen?
I got my phone stolen last night, and was wondering if apple would be able to remotely wipe everything off the phone as I do online banking and got some personal stuff on my phone..
I didnt have it step up for my phone to wipe everything after 10 shots of the password.
Apple cannot wipe your phone. You could, had you set up "Find my iPhone" before it was stolen. Assuming you did not, there is nothing you can do.

i am available for phone upgrade and would like a new phone but do not want to lose the plan i currently have, which includes unlimited data (i got it before verizon stopped it). does anyone know how to upgrade phone, and not change plan?

Yes, I've done it in the past; just make sure you do it in a store so you'll have someone who'll take accountability for it.
I think the phone itself is part of it... if you go from Android to Iphone then you need a different data package, but staying within the same sort of phone should keep you safe.
Android or iPhone data is all the same. I have 4 iPhones and 1 Android phone all on the same plan.
What you can't do and keep your unlimited data plan is get a new phone from Verizon at a subsidized price. You must pay full price from Verizon or get you new phone from somewhere else and then activate it on your Verizon plan. i.e. craigslist, ebay, or third party.
Good luck, -
Does anyone know how you can save your apps and games on your iPad when you switch iTunes accounts?
We are a family of 5, each with our own Apple devices (at least 2 per member). We have been using one iTunes account for the devices with the exception of my wife's iPhone. All of the kids devices have been on my iTunes account. We would now like to set each of the kids up with their own iTunes account but we are concerned that to do so will mean that we will have to repurchase all of the apps and games and that the progressive games like Dragonvale will be lost. Can anyone help?
ThanksYou can't. Just buy another one just for them. :)

The crystal screen of my ipad mini broke after I accidentally droped it. Does anyone know if it can be fixed directly with Apple? How much will it cost to get it fixed/replaced?
"Abuse" includes dropping it. If it's not a manufacturing fault: These prices are roughly the same in other coutries to the US.
Out-of-Warranty Service If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.
iPad model
Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
iPad mini
$219
iPad 3rd, 4th generation
$299
iPad 2, iPad
$249
A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.
Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPad is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. Replacement iPads have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare service contract coverage, whichever is longer. Please see the AppleCare+ for iPad and Apple Repair Terms And Conditions for further details. -

Does anyone know if I can transfer apps between my 2 apple ids? I have different ids for my iPhone and iPad?
You can't, all content that you download from the store is tied to the account that downloaded it, you can't merge accounts nor transfer content between them.

When I got my new iPhone and was trying to switch everything over I accidentally set up a new icloud account with one email and had one on my old iphone with another account. Does anyone know how I can merge the two accounts?
You cannot merge Apple IDs but you can go to Settings > iCloud and 'Delete Account'. When prompted to turn off documents and data, choose the only option which is Delete from my iPhone, but on the other prompt for Contacts, Calendars, etc you can choose 'Keep on my iPhone' Then once the Account is Deleted form the iPhone, log back in with the correct Apple ID and choose Merge when prompted. This will merge your data from this iPhone with that iCloud account effectively putting your devices on the same account.

i got new iphone and when i connect it to my pc, it lost all my current data and replaced it with the backup on my computer, which is from april. so i have lost all my calendar information and schedule. does anyone know how i can reverse this and get my information back?
Every backup replaces the old one, so, unless you included the backup folder in your computer backup routine, you can't get back your calendar info.
The only time iTunes will not replace a backup is, when you use it to restore from, this one will stay in the backup list in iTunes.
More info on backups here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 -

if maybe then delete disk item the_cache
end tell
if maybe then
display dialog "I deleted the file :" & return & the_cache
else
display dialog "The file :" & return & the_cache & return & "was unavailable !"
end if
--{code}
2) Than open Applescript Editor in your applications and paste it
3) Than select "Compile"
4) Than select "Run" -
My iPod nano 3rd generation headphone jack isn't working anymore, when i put my headphones in , the left earphone doesn't work. Does anyone know if this can be fixed ?
Hi Mr.Acevedo329!
I have an article here for you that can help you troubleshoot the issues you are experiencing. That article can be found right here:
iPod troubleshooting basics and service FAQ
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1382
Specifically, you will want to take note of this section:
The headphones don't work
If your iPod's headphones don't work or have static or garbled audio, try connecting them to any other 3.5 mm stereo headphone jack, like the one on your computer. If the issue with the headphones persists, replace them. For an iPod under warranty, you can order a replacement online. Otherwise, check out the cool headphones at the Apple Online Store. If the issue appears to be with the iPod, try resetting it. If that doesn't work, then restore iPod with the latest iPod software using iTunes 7 or later.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

I had my computer repaired, and when I got it back I had to reinstall iTunes. Now iTunes won't authorize this computer because it says we already have 5 devices authorized, but this is the same computer. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Deauthorizing won't delete anything, and all your purchased content is safe. You will just have to reauthorize any of the other computers that get deauthorized along with your computers old machine id.
To get your purchased content back on that computer, just use iTunes to redownload it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US). Of course, music you ripped from CD or got from another source you'll need to copy those files back over.
