Does it still cost to use internet or online apps on iphone?

I just got an iphone and am worried that even though i use my internet server at home, i will still be charged for using the internet or online apps.
does it cost me and if so how much?

If you are connecting via your home internet (presumably via wifi), they cost nothing. What they cost over the cell network depends on what contract you have.

  • On my iPhone 4, people cant hear me when I make and / or receive normal (GSM) phone calls. But when on calls using internet based / native apps like viber or skype, people can hear me just fine. Voice memos work too and have already tried different SIMs

    On my iPhone 4, people cant hear me when I make and / or receive normal (GSM) phone calls. But when I make/receive calls using internet-based / native apps like viber or skype, people can hear me just fine. I have tried recording my voice using voice memos - this works. And have already tried different SIM cards but the problem persists.
    I have taken my phone to an authorized Apple service center, where they restored my phone to factory settings, but still facing the same issue. They service center directed me to Apple Customer Care Hotline, where I have now spent 3+ hours explaining my issue and yet no one can resolve it. The easy answer if to replace the phone - and since it is out of warranty, I am expected to pay for it.
    Additionally, the customer service has been so rude and confrontational that it has completely changed my view of Apple and its customer focus. I am a disappointed and angry customer today - people would be surprised to hear just how rude customer service was including making statements such as "Apple doesnt make infallible products, that's why warranty is needed for our products" and that "every product undergoes a problem at some stage, so do ours!" There goes whatever confidence I had...
    My concern is simple - if no one at Apple and / or its CS hotline is able to address my issue comprhensively and keep telling me that they have never encountered a precedent before, then with what right can they expect me to pay for a replacement?! I am NOT here to fund Apple's research into their product faults and manufacturing.
    And even though a customer is out of warranty, is it too much to expect an Apple product to work well for at least a 'reasonable' period of time. My phone is less than 18 months old and has been facing this issue for the past 2 months - surely the longevity of Apple products is more than 18 months!
    Just a sad sad day for an Apple customer, compounded by unjustifiably rude and aggressive staff. And still no resolution to my problem.

    I am having the same issue - with my last 2 iPhone 4's. My first handset each time I was on a call wether it was up to my ear or on loud speaker, the call would automatically mute even though the mute button wouldn't show up as highlighted. Pressing the mute button on and off during the call doesn't fix it either. I rang Apple and asked what some of their trouble shooting solutions were. I got told that it might be a software issue and to install the latest software update. This failed. I then got told to uninstall the software on the phone and do a complete restore. This also failed. After trying the troubleshooting suggestions, I took the phone into my provider and they sent me out a new phone within a week under warranty claiming it was a hardware issue and probably just a "glitch" with that particular phone. This was not the case....
    After receiving my second iPhone 4, I was hopeful that it would work. For the first couple of days, making/receiving calls was not an issue. Until after about a week, the same problem started again. In one instance I had to hang up and call back 4 times and the call would still automatically mute after about 5 seconds. Also on the second handset, the main camera located on the back of the phone has red and blue lines running through it and can't take a decent picture. So back to the store I go to get another replacement - Again.
    For a phone that is rated highly and as a keen Apple product purchaser, I am a bit disappointed with the experience I have had with the iPhone 4. Let's hope they find a fix sometime soon because this is becoming a bit beyond a joke.....!!

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Having bought Aperture, does iPhoto still have its uses?

    I've wanted Aperture for the longest time, planned to buy the box later this year, then the App Store offers a lower-cost download and it's on my iMac. Unopened.
    The Discussions tell a lot, including there's a learning curve and 8 GB of memory is much better than my 4 (I'll disable Face Recognition). What I most want are the editing tools and the separate libraries.
    There's 2540 photos in iPhoto and while it will be great to re-work some, the great majority won't be touched. So my question is, would it make sense to keep iPhoto going -- even continue to use it for simple snaps? Is there a problem with that?
    One reason for my caution is I had big problems with a recent iMac migration and I read of others loosing photos when moving to Aperture -- or not knowing where to find them.
    Thanks . . . Fortes

    You're caution in approaching Aperture is a good thing. While it is relatively easy to get it up and running in a short period of time and to get you iPhoto library into it, it is highly unlikely that you will get it the way you want it on the first attempt or second or third. It's a lot like chess, the moves can be learnt is a short period of tim you'll spend a lifetime learning the game.
    For that matter at this stage you don't really know how you want. Until you have used Aperture for a while you won't know how it works, it's strengths and it's weaknesses. Even reading everything you can get your hands on won't make up for the actual experience of using it and finding out that that elegant plan you had for the library setup fails flat when something you hadn't thought about pops up.
    Here's how I made the switch from iPhoto to Aperture. Knowing that I would't get it right the first time, I made sure I would have the ability to totally blow away whatever I had done and start fresh. This meant having backups of everything. This can't be stressed enough. Knowing that you can go in and try anything you like in Aperture and if it fails you can get rid of it all is very powerful and will accelerate you're learning.
    When I was ready to make the switch, first I froze iPhoto. Nothing went into iPhoto after that, I then created a new Aperture library called +Camera Holding+ which I used to import everything I shot after that date. This library was setup with a very basic one project per shot setup. Nothing fancy just a place to keep my new images until I was sure I had Aperture setup like I wanted. This library was also vaulted to to separate HDs.
    Now the fun part experimenting and learning Aperture. I imported my iPhoto library numerous times trying one setup and then another. I also created separate libraries for the images I was currently shooting and tried various library setups and import strategies with those. I must have spent close to 3 months before I was ready to totally commit to Aperture. And even now 6 months latter has I've used it more I not totally satisfied with my setup but at least at this point its mostly minor tweaks to the structure so they can be done in place. But I still have numerous experimental libraries to try things out in.
    So take you're time and remember the best way to get comfortable with the program is to not have to be worrying about messing up and destroying your images.

  • In printing only a specific selected section, the top line or 2 of the printout is not printing. This only happened since the last update. It does not happen when I use internet explorer.

  • When I create a shortcut on Mozila, my computer still tries to use Internet Explorer to access it. How do I change that?

    I had a problem with IE and removed it. Now I cannot put it back. Mozila works fine if I type in the address to every site I visit. I cannot seem to create a shortcut to use thru Mozila. I created a shortcut, but every time I click on it, my computer tries to use IE. Help.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    Basic question: Do you have a tethering plan with your carrier? It isn't automatically provisioned; you have to ask for it and pay extra with most carriers. See these tips from Apple:

  • My daughter accidentally lost the iPhone 3GS i gave her as a debut gift and feel so bad about it....could we still trace it using the serial number of the iPhone? Please help....

    To whom it may concern,
    Good day to you. My name is Reynaldo from the Philippines and i want to report a stolen iPhone 3GS 8 GB Black. I legally bought this iPhone last April 12, 2012 12:09 pm at Apple Store Lakeside shopping center 3301 veterans memorial blvd., suite 19, Metaire LA 70002. I still got the original receipt including the serial number, IMEI number and the part number of the said iPhone. It's an unlocked version of the iPhone 3 GS and my daughter has been using it here in the Philippines for more than a year already. I gave this iPhone to my daughter as a debut gift and i know it's so important to her most especially the contacts and some important apps that she value so much. As a father, it broke my heart to see her cried when she found out it was stolen from her bag when she was riding in a public utility vehicle here in our area, Bacolod City, Negros Occidental.
    I would like to ask any help from anyone about any idea how could i trace it so i might be able to retrieve it back. PLEASE HELP ME TRACE IT.
    Sincerely,
    Reynaldo

    Thank you so much for your concern. I'll try your advise tomorrow morning. God bless.

  • Using .mac with mail.app and iphone...problems with mailbox folders i think

    Is it normal in mail.app for my folders to be as follows: Under the heading Mailboxes, I have Inbox folder and Sent folder and trash folder. Then, instead of a junk folder under that, it is below all of that under the heading Chris's Email (obviously my account). Why is this?

    Who is your ISP used for connecting to the internet?
    Are you also accessing an email account and SMTP server that is provided by your ISP with the Mail.app and if so, are you able to send messages with your ISP's email account?
    Most if not all ISPs used for connecting to the internet now block the use of SMTP servers that are outside of their network (or not provided by the ISP) on Port 25 which is the default port for SMTP servers.
    Some ISPs allow the use of an authenticated SMTP server only (such as the .Mac SMTP server) on Port 25 but some block its use regardless.
    These restructions are in place as part of an overall effort to prevent spam emanating from the ISP's domain.
    First thing to try.
    Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP server selection, select the Server Settings button below the the .Mac SMTP server.
    Enter 587 in place of 25 in the Server Port field and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting.
    If this doesn't work, you need to contact your ISP. If you are accessing an email account and SMTP server that is provided by your ISP used for connecting to the internet with the Mail.app, in the interim select/use your ISP's SMTP server to send messages with your .Mac account which is invisible to all recipients.

  • Using folders in Mail app on iPhone - Synching iPhone and Mac Mail app

    I have a hotmail account and my iMac is set up to recieve that mail to the Mail app. In the Mail app I have organized all the emails I have recieved into different folders but I would like those same folders to show up on my iPhone so that when an email comes in I can drag it to the appropriate folder and it will be in that folder on my iPhone as well as on my iMac. Also if I delete a email on my iPhone I would like it to delete in my Mail app on my iMac.
    Is this possible? if so, how do I do it?
    Thanks in advance for any help!!!

    New emails should automatically get pushed onto your device; however if you have read your emails on a different computer or device it will still show as unread on your iphone.
    follow the following steps make sure that they are right:
    Settings
    Mail Contacts Calendar
    Fetch new Data
    Ensure that “Push” is on
    Ensure that “Every 15 Minutes” is selected
    Go down to advanced
    Select the accounts outstanding and change them to “Push”

  • Using BT Smart Talk App on iPhone 4 - Can make call but receiver can't hear me

    Switched to BT and the BT Smart Talk App appealed, which I've downloaded onro my iPhone 4.
    Been through registration process with BT for Smart Talk App (after downloading IOS7.0) which went well.
    However I've tried to make several calls and no-one can hear me.
    The phones itself works perfectly in usual phone mode.
    I have, of course, tried to resolve this with BT but got nowhere.
    In fact I was given several possible reasons all of which I think they made up!
    They are now due to call me next week.
    I've heard of several strange solutions (one using a piece of cardboard being one!!) but I'm guessing I'm not the only one facing this challenge.

    Go to settings :privacy:microphone:  then turn on access to microphone ,that should cure your problem
