Does the iphone remove emails automatically??

I've been looking at the iphone5 or 4s, but someone told me something alarming, and I wanted to check this officially first please.
I use my phone for business, so when I am on the move, I can check back at emails. ie. 2-3 months ago, or evening just a month ago at times.
On my current non-Apple handset I can see emails as far back as I choose, because I have not deleted them. This has only baout 300mb or storage but has a MicroSD 16gb card that does not use storage for emails.
Is it true that iPhone removes emails automitically, and if so how far back? And is there a way to switch this function off please?
Many thanks.

As with any other email client, there is a setting with a POP account for removing messages from the server after being downloaded. What the iPhone's Mail app doesn't include is a right away after being downloaded option.
All server stored mailboxes with an Exchange or IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server with each each email client used to access the account. There is no setting to automatically delete messages for an Exchange or IMAP account with the iPhone's Mail app except for the account's Trash mailbox which is the same with an email client on your computer.

I'm going to Italy. Do I need a voltage transformer or does the iPhone 4 convert automatically?

Does the iPhone automatically convert from USA voltage to continental Europe voltage?

I just returned from Italy (Florence, Venice, Rome) and the iphone voltage DOES convert automatically 110-240V. As Julian stated, all I had to do to charge my iphone was attach the round prong adapter to it. Ciao! Enjoy your trip.

Does the iphone support the use of a wildcard certificate?

Does the iphone support the use of a wildcard certificate?
Our exchange infrastructure utilises a wildcard (*.companyname certificate) from Godaddy.
- Connects fine and authenticates
- Can manually sync and pull emails
- Can Send and Delete emails
However server is not establishing the activesync connection and ping so mail can be pushed to the device.
My guess is its a problem with the wildcard certificate that is used, WM5.0 devices didnt work with it, does anyone one know if the iPhone supports this?
- I can get to OWA fine which uses the same wildcard cert.
- WM6.0 devices push mail fine.
Thanks.

kfc01,
The iPhone Deployment Guide (linked from http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/enterprise) says it does for VPN.
Hope this helps,

What provisions does the iPhone make to save battery, when the level drops?

When I get the warning about my battery dropping under 20%, does the iPhone actually make smart provisions to keep it going for as long as possible?
For example by reducing screen brightness, stopping push email, email checks, killing background activity and scaling other services.
If it does not already do this by default, and option for this to happen would be a welcome edition to eek out as much "emergency use" as possible.

No, it just warns you. It's then up to you to take steps you deem appropriate to conserve your power, or connect to a power source.
Steps to conserve power can be found here:

Is there a way the iPhone turns on automatically like a blackberry

I used to have a blackberry. I could turn phone off at night and I could set it to turn on in the am. It would do it automatically. Does the iPhone do this?

No.

What sort of Wireless Data Security does the iPhone have/use?

During transmission of data, is it encrypted? I'm aware that the BlackBerry Enterprise version uses AES to secure data during transmission. Does the iPhone use this as well, or another standard? If so, is this feature included on all iPhone models/classes? I'm not sure if the iPhone for business is tangibly different than the iPhone sold to non-business individuals/families - or if the AT&T phone plan is the only thing which differs.
Thanks to anyone who addresses my questions regarding security.

Keep in mind that any phone can be set up to get email without any kind of data security. The Blackberry can bet set up to do POP, SMTP, etc. over an un-encrypted link. In these cases there is no AES used.
The BBs encryption is only between the handset and BES or BIS server. Although the BB does encrypt data on the phone, this is only as effective as the PIN - if the phone is unlocked all data is available.
The iPhone defaults to using SSL for encryption of data on the wire, but this can be turned off. The phone does NOT encrypt the data stored on it, but incorrect PIN attempts can wipe the phone if configured that way.
Keep in mind that many of the Benefits of a Blackberry require the BES (Blackberry Enterprise Server) at your organization. Without one, you have no Push email. You have to resort to Blackberry Internet Server (BIS) where you store your credentials on the RIM server and it screen scrapes Outlook Web Access or pulls from POP accounts. You may get AES encryption between handset and server, but you have given up your account credentials to who knows what.

Does the iPhone 4s need a data plan inorder for "siri" to work or can you just use your local wifi?

Does the iPhone 4s need a data plan inorder for "siri" to work or can you just use your local wifi?

It can use both in all the commercials they are using wifi im trying to find out just how much Siri depends on data but so far I think it mainly uses it to pull info up and for some reason to dictate email but it does work on carrier data I guess it's just slower so you don't neccersarily need a data plan in place or have to dig into it to use Siri If you have wifi close by

On the Apple webiste, I read that you must run OS 10.6.8 in order to sync the iPhone 5 with the computer. However, in the tech specs on the "Buy the iPhone now" email I received at my .me email address, it list the OS sytem needed as 10.5.8. Which is it

On the Apple website, I read that you must run OS 10.6.8 in order to sync the iPhone 5 with the computer. However, in the tech specs on the "Buy the iPhone now" email I received at my .me email address, it listed the OS sytem needed as 10.5.8. Which is it?

In Reply to all fellow Apple fans: It is great that someone found a work-around to the iTunes 11.4 no syncing problem. I think that is fine for the short term. And I am really glad that we customers have a forum to share information and experiences regarding Apple's products. However, as someone here said, we are all customers; and posting a problem here "IN HOPES THAT APPLE READS THESE POSTS" is NOT a way to resolve this issue or any issue.
PLEASE CONTACT APPLE: Apple Service Center: 1-800-275-2273 - Once you get a ticket number then and only then is this documented and then Apple can follow-through and alert the engineers who will fix this.
The "CWA2" work-around band-aid does several things in addition to reverting back to iTunes 11.3.1. :
1) It ensures that Apple continues to know nothing of the problem.
2) It ensures that the faulty code that is within 11.4 remains there and is perpetuated into future versions.
3) It ensures that YOU can never upgrade to future versions. (If the resident faulty code remains and perpetuates)
So once you have reverted back to 11.3.1, the problem APPEARS to have gone away (FOR YOU) but you have not solved the problem.
Again, respectfully,
1) Sending feedback to apple (using the "Report Bugs To Apple" menu item in Safari will get the information to someone, somewhere and add it to the pile of issues, complaints, suggestions, etc.
2) CALLING the Apple service/support Center at 1-800-275-2273 will put you in touch with a real APPLE person who will begin the process of documenting and forwarding this issue on to those who will fix it.
and
3) emailing Apple directly will make sure that they get the information.
lets get this fixed !!!!!!!!!

Why does the iphone 5 always display the wrong time

why does the iphone 5 always display the wrong time

I had similar problem. My iPhone was always about 3 minutes faster than the correct time here in the UK which I found to be very irritating. It just came to a head because here in the UK we have just changed from British Summer Time back to standard GMT. This actually worked automatically except that the iPhone time still showed it to be about 3 minutes faster than GMT. However I have now cured the problem (almost) by going to
Settings/General/ Date & Time/ and then selected the "Set Automatically" button.
The clock then immediately jumped back 3 minutes and now the iPhone time is only about 10 seconds slow which is good enough for me.

How does the iPhone 3G handle this???

If I save photos from my email, and there are multiple photos with the same name, how does the iPhone 3g behave? Since I can't see the filenames of the photos, I am unable to determine if any two images have the same filename.
Does the phone rename one? Overwrite one? What occurs??

That is exactly what I was talking about. I expected as much however I noticed the following occur. I save a photo from one source, and saved the exact same photo from another source (both have the same filename) I then deleted the first one that I saved, and both photos were deleted.
Is that the proper behavoire?

Does the iPhone 5 support Sprint's 4G Wimaxx?

this is the answer i got from an Apple Support representative before he disappeared without saying anything:
Now Chatting with Kaeleb
Hi, welcome to the US Apple Online Store. How are you?
does the iphone 5 work on sprints 4g wimaxx and 4g lte?
Yes it sure does, the iPhone is designed to run Sprints network wherever you have it available.
i was told by a sprint representative that the iphone 5 is only capable of supporting their 3G or 4G LTE and doesn't supoort their 4G wimaxx
Then that information is correct
Our iPhone is designed to run whatever network the carrier allows for, if they have features not offered specifically they would be the ones with that information. The network information comes from the carrier.
yes but is the phone capable of it? it either has the antenna to connect to it or not
All iPhones have antennas to connect to a cellular network, the type of network it connects to is determined by the service provider, in your case Sprint.
I haven't heard from you for a few moments. Would you like to continue chatting?
your not giving me useful answers
I am giving you accurate information
Wether its useful or not, the information your looking for comes from Sprint.
there are specific antennas and frequencies that must be used depending on what you're trying to connect to
And since you have already discussed this with them, I have no idea why you are here asking us about something Sprint has already clarified for you.
your the company that designs and manufactures thephone
Your not getting it. As you said, we make the phone.
With an Antenna
The type of network* is determined by the service provider.
because prior to ever speaking with sprint one of your apple representatives gave me information contradicting that
4G, 4GLTE etc, all made up by the carriers to determine their networks.
what im asking is: is the iphone 5 made to be compatible with 4g wimaxx
whether or not sprint allows it to be
I get what your asking but your not quite understanding the answer. The iPhone is made compatible to connect to cellular network. Apple does not have information regarding which network types it will connect to, its designed to work on a GSM or CDMA network, the network strength which is 4G etc, is determined by the carrier. Here at Apple we have nothing to do with that.
We don't make iPhones designed specifically for 4G, 4G LTE, 4g wimaxx or any other network. Its made to run on a GSM or CDMA type network.
you manufacture 3 different iPhone that have specific antennas radio frquencies based on which carrier its going to be activated on
From the your carrier determines the compatibility.
Thats not true
We manufacture 2 types as I told you
GSM and CDMA
Sprint and Verizon are both CDMA
a verizon iphone cant be used on sprints network and vice versa because the use different frequencies
both cdma but different
like the differnence between wimaxx and lte
Not true, its because the phones are locked to the carriers services. It has nothing to do with Antennas, I am not sure where you are getting your information but if you can show me on our website where it says anything about 3 different Antennas then I would understand where you are coming from.
Let me get you the number to our technical support team so that we can find a resolution to this issue. 800-APL-CARE(800-275-2273)
one moment and i will
I am a sales chat and here to assist customers with the online store, I am not going to be able to leave this chat open for you to contact technical support.
i already spoke to them
Ok great, do you have any online sales questions I can answer for you?
they weren't able to give me an answer and aid to look online
I find that hard to believe, this team knows for a fact and are the experts they would never direct anyone to go online for that information. You may have spoke with customer service. You need to call technical support from the number I just have you.
well they did
GSM model A1428*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1700/2100, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 2, 4, 5, 17) CDMA model A1429*: CDMA EV-DO Rev. A and Rev. B (800, 1900, 2100 MHz); UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 1, 3, 5, 13, 25) GSM model A1429*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 1, 3, 5)
This is a final warning to stop this type of response. If this conversation is not kept on a professional level, this chat will end.
thats from your site
you asked me to show you thats what i did
You can call technical support but I need to assist customers with their purchases today.
i have been nothing but professional
i am a customer
i own a macbook air and mac mini
as well as 4th gen ipod touch and an old iphone 3gs
Great, this is a sales chat.
and this is how youre going to treat me?
I have helped you to the best of my ability, your in the wrong department
All I am doing is getting you to the correct team, because obviously you have not been given the information your looking for.
well you helped me as much as your so called technical support that youre trying to refer me to. even though i already stated they werent able to help me
I guarantee you didn't speak with the technical support team. There is no way they would send a customer online to seek that information, they are well aware that the online store chat is for online sales assistance. I am not going to continue to argue with you. This chat is not going anywhere with this back and forth. If you want assistance you will call our technical support team.
800-APL-CARE (800-275-2273)
thats who i spoke to at 10:03
put me on hold several times and said he was unsure and for me to look online
in your chat community
Then I would suggest calling back because for whatever reason the agent you spoke with the last time must not have been an Apple trained technicians, as they get this question plenty and know the answer.
Thank you for choosing the Apple Store. If you have any additional questions, please chat us again.
You are currently not in a chat

All the information you need is right here: http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
Notice there is no mention of WiMax.
It doesn't really matter anyway as Sprint is rolling their WiMax network down for use by MVNOs. Actual Sprint customers will not have access to WiMax at all. It was a failed experiment.

Why does the iPhone convert animated .GIF images?

I saved a bunch of animated .GIF files on my iPhone.
When I imported them onto my computer, they were all single framed .JPG files.
Why does the iPhone convert the images, and is there any way to prevent this?
Thanks!

you can play gif in webView ,just the same way you load a jpeg or png..
NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"santa" ofType:@"gif"];
NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path isDirectory:NO];
/* Load the request. */
[myWebView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url]];
the gif that is locally saved will be loaded.

Does anyone know if my G3S Iphone will sync Itunes on my MAC Power PC G4, OSI0.4.11? If it will, what operting system does the Iphone need?

Does anyone know if my G3S Iphone will sync Itunes on my MAC Power PC G4, OSI0.4.11? If it will, what operting system does the Iphone need?

My apologies, I read your post the wrong way. I see now that the original poster was confused about the specs and you were simply responding with the appropriate info.
I've gotten defensive after reading the forums. The forums are full of posters just looking to prove someone wrong or stupid, rather than being helpful. I shouldn't have assumed you were one of those people. Sorry.
I did my homework and discovered that my PowerPC will run Leopard. It can be purchased for $129 by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE. This is much cheaper than replacing my laptop.
I hope to upgrade my Mac soon, though! Can't believe this thing is still ticking. I love Apple.

Hello,how much does the iphone 4 16gb unlocked cost if i want to buy it as a gift and to use it outside USA?

Hello,how much does the iphone 4 16gb unlocked cost if i want to buy it as a gift and to use it outside USA?

If you're talking about buying the phone in the US, forget it. There are NO unlocked iPhones sold in the US and no US iPhone can be officially unlocked. Thus, it doesn't really matter what it costs.
