Downloading music when out and about

If i am out and about and download a song or app on my phone (using itunes) will this use any data allowance?

Yes, if you aren't using Wi-Fi

TS1398 I have the ipad retina display version - I have a BIG issue with this when out and about that on about 50% of the time will it see my HTC mobile WiFi hotspot - rebooting either, or both devices doesn't cure the problem it drives me MAD!!!!

I have the ipad retina display version - I have a BIG issue with this when out and about, that only about 50% of the time will it see my HTC mobile WiFi hotspot - rebooting either, or both devices doesn't cure the problem it drives me MAD!!!!
The HTC hotspot works fine with everything else I connect to it.
Also - ipad will not connect to my HTC via bluetooth. Again, I can connect to everything else with my HTC other than my ipad.
I have to say this is my first venture into Apple products and I have always wanted to get away from my windows based laptop to get a MacBook, the problems I have had (flash player etc) & continue to have (as above) are putting me right off swapping over. I HATE technology that doesn't work and my ipad has been hard work!

I stated my ipad as being an ipad2, but I now think it is a 3??? It was new Jan this year and is the 64gb retina display version.
I really would like to get to the bottom on this problem wit mobile hotspots as it is sitting on my desk next to me now and I cannot get it to connect to my HTC mobile hotspot!!!! It might be taking a flying lesson soon at this rate!!! Grrrrrrr...........

Using apps, send/recieve emails when out and about

details:
8520 curve
virgin mobile
v4.6.1.314 (platform 4.2.0.135)
Hi.
I'm new to the blackberry and when i signed up to virgin i was offered unlimited internet an free email.
why is it that ican only send and recieve emails when i'm connected to my wifi at home?
also none of my apps work when i'm out and about.
is this normal?
i would just use my laptop if i was at home so what is the point in that???
thanks for any advice.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB):
1) Register HRT
Homescreen > Options > Advanced Options > Host Routing Table > (it does not matter which line is current) > Register Now
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your carrier for formal assistance...you are paying for a service that they are not delivering to you...
Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!

Connecting to WiFi when out and about

Hello,
I have had my iPod touch for about 2 weeks and I really like it. At home, I have absolutely no problems connecting to WiFi and all of the applications function.
The problem arises when I am out and about. I live in New York City, so there are tons of open connections available nearly everywhere. However, I have only rarely been able to connect to them. Is there something I'm missing? Thanks in advance for your help.
Leanne

Yes it is sorta a hit and miss even when the connection seems to be open and public it still may be set to Mac Addressing which would mean if your Mac Address isn't listed in that Wireless Router it isn't going to let you join the network.
The best luck I have is to find homes that don't have any security at all as most business's and Cafe hotspots are locked and still require a password.

"Sender address rejected by server" but only when out and about!

Hi!
My iPhone 3GS has been working fine with sending and receiving emails both via wifi and when I'm out and about.
Now it won't allow me to send emails while I'm out. Can receive them okay and can access the internet, but when I try to send them I get told that the sender address was rejected by the server.
Yet it still works perfectly fine sending and receiving via wifi when I'm home.
I'm using an smtp address attached to my work, port 587. I know nothing technical but can try to give other details if asked.
Spent a while in the Orange shop and didn't get anywhere, any help I would gladly accept!

Yes! It worked! Haven't left the house yet today but managed to send emails with the wifi turned off, which is better than I have been doing.
I had tried putting my username and password in but not the whole email address, had also tried putting my server log in details into those boxes.
Thank you, it really was driving me mad and you saved me having to tediously go through it all on the phone with someone.

Cannot send mail when out and about

Hey all
I recently got my Iphone4 and synced it to my mail on my computer. When using my iphone at home it send mail without a problems as it goes through my wifi I have. Internet is virgin media and mail is with windows mail by the way incase its important.
When I am out and about I can recieve email without a problem but cannot send anything at all.
What do I need to do so that I can send mail no matter where I am?
Thanks
Ant

It's most likely exactly the same issue. Most ISPs only allow you to use their outgoing email server whilst connected to their internet service.
With a mobile device like an iPhone you won't always be connected to your ISPs internet service. Sometimes it will be your mobile network provider (when on 3G), or on some other WiFi service like a public hotspot in Starbucks or McDonalds.
When you are not connected to your ISPs internet service, you either have to use the SMTP server of the internet provider you are connected to (awkward to keep changing, even if you know it), or you "authenticate" your connection to your ISPs SMTP server (if they allow it) with a username and password so that they can verify it is you who is using their server and not some spammer.
The best way to avoid all this, is to use an email provider that is totally independent of any internet provider and will therefore work from anywhere, regardless of how you are connecting to the internet.
GMail and Apple's own MobileMe offer authenticated SMTP servers that work from anywhere.

Connecting wirelessly when out and about

Forgive my ignorance I am very new to all this. If I am out and about with my iBook and come across a place e.g. coffee shop, which has free wireless internet access, do I have to be a paying subscriber of that service in order to get on the net? Would Airport be the way I would connect? Will it ask me a password or something?
Do they have such wireless access at the Apple Store Regent Street and if so which provider do they use?
Thanks

That would depend on the network your joining. For example if your walking down Tottenham Court Road and click on your airport icon you may see half a dozen wifi network available to you.
example
BT click
T-mobile in startbucks
there is wifi in cafe nero
You may pick up private networks.
Any way if you choose from the list t-mobile it lets you join then network but the first tine you open your web browser it redirects you to a page where you have to enter your membership details or use a credit card to purchase 1 hour of internet time.
If you choose a private network from the list you may be prompted to enter a wep key or wpa password.
If however you join an open network you may be able to surf the net without entering a password. You can get fre internet in the cafe above foyles bookshop on charing X road.
Do they have such wireless access at the Apple Store Regent Street and if so which provider do they use?
The wifi in the apple store is free and is provided by apple I am not sure which ISP they use. It does not really matter. You can sit in there and use the internet.

Broadband access when out and about

I am an Infinity user and FON registered. At my away from home location the BTcoverage map shows three FON users ,all within 100 yards but no nearby Openzones. I am unable to make a connection. Do the other local Fon users have to have their Broadband on in order for me to connect ?
As there are plenty of Talk-Talk sites (but all secured) is there anyway that I can access through Talk -Talk or another means ?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi you can only connect to a FON or OPENZONE site i you are in range of the hub as using suppliers like TT no they do not operate a FON /OPENZONE service you can also log in to any cloud network site free as well the only need to connect is an active BT HUB you have to be able to see the hub signal on your laptop/mobile device to connect to it

I am using an iPad and iPhone and have exchange as my email. Both will only collect mails when I am in the wifi of the office, and not when I am out and about. I can't seem to get a fix for it.

So my daughter plugged her ipad i to home pc to download music from itunes and it wiped everthing out of her ipad and copied my ipad from the last time I had mine plugged in. Is there anyway to get my info back like all her pictures?

Had she backed up her iPad to a different computer or iCloud?
If not, it's gone.

TS1717 I have exclamation marks (!) which has ruined my playlist as it doesn't function as it should. I was downloading music when a scan had started which I cancelled. Ever since then I've had these exclamation marks anyone know how to fix it?

I have exclamation marks at the beginning of the titles which has ruined my playlist as it doesn't function as it should. I was downloading music when a scan started which I then cancelled as it was slowing down my download. Ever since then I've had these exclamation marks and now these tunes are not transferrable and I've lost them in my music file on the ipod nano and so cannot reload them again. Anyone know how to remove the !!!'s or clean my files?

You get exclamation marks or dead tracks because iTunes can’t find the file. This can happen for a number of reasons:
The song file or a folder in its path was renamed
The song file or the folder it is in has been moved
The song file has been deleted
The device containing the song files e.g. external drive is not accessible or the drive letter has changed..
Usually the actual music files are still there, so you need to check to see if you can find them.
If they are there, open iTunes and select a problem track, right click and select Get Info.
Answer NO when asked if you want to locate the track.
Now you should see where iTunes thinks the tack is located on the summary tab, how does this compare with where the track actually is.
This info should help work out what has gone wrong.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

We bought a used Ipod Touch from a private party. We can download music when it's hooked up to the computer but can't download any games or songs by using the wifi. How can we change the password so we can do this?

You should restore the the iPod to totally erase the iPod and add your own media to the iPod.
