First iPhone 4S Recovered by Please Return Me

What do you guys think of this? Have you heard of Please Return Me?
KALAMAZOO, Michigan – October 19, 2011
Today, Please Return Me has recovered its first iPhone 4S.  The iPhone was recovered, much to owner Robert Forgey’s surprise, in a bar near Western Michigan University.  Rob recalled having had a few beers last night at the University Roadhouse on W. Michigan Ave but has no idea how or when the phone was actually lost.
Rob’s new 64GB iPhone 4S is the newest and most expensive of the Apple iPhone product line.  The Kalamazoo resident who stated he was “devastated when he realized his phone wasn’t in his pocket” had gotten his new smartphone just 2 days earlier at the local Best Buy.  After opting to get Best Buy’s insurance plan, which covers everything but lost and stolen items, Rob decided Please Return Me labels would be the perfect supplement to his insurance.
Rob, who was staying with his girlfriend after his evening at the bar, woke up to discover a text from Please Return Me on her phone, which had been listed as an alternate number on his account.  He immediately used her smartphone to visit the ‘Claim Item’ link provided in the text.
Please Return Me immediately provided Rob with the contact information provided by the returner who wishes to remain anonymous. Rob picked the phone up from the returner later this morning.  “Without the label, I’m sure I’d be shelling out $649 at the Apple store” said the happy student.
Congrats Rob and thank you for the pictures!

And this is related to the iphone how? This is a third party sticker so I don't see why it is relavant in these user forums.

  • I have my first iPhone (5c) and I have an iPod classic 160GB.  Can I sync poth with iTunes on my PC?

    I have lost some podcasts.  I have a new (my first) iPhone and I want to sync it and my classic iPod with iTunes on my PC.  Can this be done and if not, how can I recover my lost podcasts?  They are no longer available for free as I first got them through subscriptions.
    iPhone 5c
    Windows 7 (fully up to date)
    iPod Classic 160GB
    Second question:  why are podcasts only available for so short a time now on iTunes Store and on sites like NPR?

    I lost maybe a dozen podcasts from multiple podcast collections on iTunes.  They now have little i's on them indicating they cannot be found.  I have only 1 Apple ID.  I use it on iTunes and on my iPhone.  Since I sync'd my iPhone with iTunes for podcasts, a bunch of them have the little i's.  And some seem to be missing from my iPod too, but I can't vouch for them being thre before the sync between iTunes and the iPhone.
    These podcasts were not purchased, they were subscribed to and they were free.  Now that they are missing, it will cost me .99 each to replace them and that isn't going to happen, but I'd like to get them back.

  • I went to make a call this morning, and all my contacts have disappeared! How can I can them back? I only just entered them all the other day, this is my first iphone

    I went to make a call this morning and all my contacts have disappeareed, how do i get them back? This is my first iphone (4s) and i only just entered them all manually 4 days ago! Please help me!

    I entered them directly into my phone. Two days ago, I plugged it into my mac and synced it with itunes, but i didn't sync the contacts and they were still in there after.

  • I am confused about Icloud. I have a 5 year old Macbook, a 2 year old macbook and a 5 year old mac mini. What exactly do I need to do to get all this connected via Icloud. I also have an Iphone 3G. Help please!

    I am confused about Icloud. I have a 5 year old Macbook, a 2 year old macbook and a 5 year old mac mini. What exactly do I need to do to get all this connected via Icloud. I also have an Iphone 3G. Help please! Also, I still don't understand exactly what the benefits are. At the moment it seems a lot of hassle to change a system that's been working perfectly well and that I'm very happy with. I'm not at all sure whether the mac mini (1.66 GHz INtel Core Duo) can be brought up to the relevant spec to run ICloud.  Any thoughts?

    There are two aspects to iCloud.  One is simply getting an account, or migrating a mobileme account to iCloud.  The second part is using the various features of iCloud to sync contacts, calendars, use music match or photo sharing, and store iWorks documents.
    First to get an iCloud account:
    If you have a mobileme account, you can migrate by simply logging onto www.icloud.com (ignore any references to Lion and just click through to complete the migration).  If you have OS X Lion or an iOS 5 mobile device, you can create an iCloud account on that device using any valid AppleID.
    Once you have an account, you can use JUST the mail account if you wishi - it is a standard IMAP account so you would set it up like any other IMAP email account you have, in whatever client program you use to read email.
    To use the OTHER feautes of iCloud, your computers will have to be running OS X Lion (10.7).  Your iPhone 3G will never be able to use iCloud as it cannot run iOS 5 (you need a min. of an iPhone 3GS to run iOS 5).
    The requirements for OS X Lion are here - http://www.apple.com/macosx/specs.html  You need a min. of a Core 2 duo processor so you mini is not capable of running Lion.
    So, in your case, the single reasons for iCloud would be if you have a mobileme account, then use the online www.icloud.com to migrate your account so you do not lose your @me.com email address.  You can use iCloud email (without using any other iCloud features) by setting it up as IMAP mail with these settings - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
    If you want an iCloud account and do NOT already have a mobileme account, you will need to upgrade one machine at least to Lion in order to be able to create an iCloud account.

  • Planning on getting first iPhone

    Hi, I was planning on getting my first iPhone, but I'm not quit sure on how everything works. First, do I go to the apple store or at&t store first? Do I need some type of proof that I'm an at&t customer? Second, once I get the phone, do I have to take it to the at&t store to set it up? Also, what is the base data plan I need to get when I set it up? This is mostly all I was wondering about, if anyone has past experiences with buying one, please post any problems you may have found.
    ~thanks

    When iPhone first came out, it was a mess to get one, to activate it and get things set up. Now, it's a very simple process. You can get one and get it all set up and running right at the store. Apple, ATT, Best Buy, or even Wal-mart . . . AND as of this weekend, RADIO SHACK

    Written by Eric Slivka
    AppleInsider reports that electronics retailer RadioShack is set to make a splash this weekend with an advertising blitz promoting the iPhone's availability in 3,000 of its 4,500 U.S. stores, pushing the company past AT&T and Best Buy to become the second-largest provider of iPhone points-of-sale behind Wal-Mart.
    According to the report, RadioShack has been rolling out iPhone availability to hundreds of stores each week this year following last November's announcement that it would begin carrying the device. And to coincide with the advertising push, which will see the iPhone featured on the front of RadioShack's newspaper circular, the company is also knocking a few dollars off the price of the device.
    For its part in this, Radio Shack plans to promote the entire family of iPhones on the cover of its March 28 circular, at what it claims are the lowest prices ever offered for the touchscreen handset nationwide -- essentially $5 off MSRP across the board, or $95 for the 8GB iPhone 3G, $195 for the 16GB iPhone 3GS, and $295 for the 32GB iPhone 3GS.
    Apple's prices for the iPhone come in at $99/$199/$299 with a two-year contract, while Wal-Mart offers only the iPhone 3GS models at $197/$297 price points and RadioShack appears to be ready to set the standard even slightly lower.
    RadioShack will reportedly also be promoting its Trade-In Program as a means for customers to replace their existing mobile phones with iPhones at discounted prices. Finally, sources indicate that RadioShack associates may receive as much as $30 or more in commissions for selling an iPhone, twice that of most other handsets and thus providing motivation for sales staff to encourage potential customers to consider an iPhone.
    Good luck. You'll love it.

  • Your First iPhone Application Keyboard Won't go Away

    I followed the Document "Your First iPhone Application" Right to the letter and no matter how much I start at this code and the linking in the interface builder I can't figure out why the keyboard won't dismiss with the done button
    I put a break in the following code and it's not even getting launched when done is pressed
    - (BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)theTextField {
    if (theTextField == textField) {
    [textField resignFirstResponder];
    return YES;
    Anyone have any ideas on what I should check? Everything else works in the program.

    MyViewController.h file contents
    #import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
    @interface MyViewController : UIViewController <UITextFieldDelegate> {
    UITextField *textField;
    UILabel *label;
    NSString *string;
    @property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UITextField *textField;
    @property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UILabel *label;
    @property (nonatomic, retain) NSString *string;
    - (IBAction)changeGreeting:(id)sender;
    @end
    I think this is what you are referring to. Also in the Interface builder I have the File's Owner class set to MyViewController
    I'm so confused I've felt like I've gone through the booklet 3 times threw trying to figure this out. If I can't get this keyboard to go away there is no way i'm going to be able to build a complex app

  • I purchased an unlocked iPhone 4S from US and returned to india,but now I can't activate the phone.

    I purchased an unlocked iPhone 4S from US and returned to india,but now I can't activate the phone. Called up the apple support team in India they said it is already unlocked from AT&T. What am I suppose to do ?
    Previously my iTunes was showing the phone and summary etc etc. The India Support center asked me to upgrade it to 5.1.1 then the new sim will be recognised, but now nothing is happening, even iTunes is not showing the Summary page.
    Please suggest?
    I never expected apple stuff to be like this.

    Got an (unlocked) iphone 4s from US
    As kb1951 states, unless this phone was purchased directly from Apple, it is not officially unlocked. In the US, only Apple sells officially unlocked iPhones. The message you got generally means your phone was hacked to unlock it...jailbroken...Apple's servers have detected such & are preventing your phone from activating...there's nothing wrong with the activation servers.
    You'll need a sim card from the carrier your phone is locked to in order to activate it. If you don't know what carrier, you'll have to call AppleCare in the US to determine this info. Be aware, US carriers will not authorize official unlocking unless you are a customer that used the phone on their network. Thus, there is most likely no way for you to get this phone officially unlocked.
    Good luck.

  • HT201407 I bought Iphone 4S from Poland and I can not activate my Iphone in Astana, Kazakhstan. please, Can you help me?

    Dear Apple Support,
    I bought Iphone 4S from Poland and I can not activate my Iphone in Astana, Kazakhstan and can not use my Iphone in Astana.
    Please, Can you help me?
    Best Regards,
    Danalyk Zhakey

    This is not Apple support. It is a user to user forum.
    It would seem that you bought a phone that is locked to a carrier in Poland. You would either need to contact this carrier to discuss unlocking, or return or sell the phone and buy an unlocked one.

  • IPOD 4 HAS BEEN STOLEN PLEASE RETURN THANKS

    No app on the iPod is required.                            
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • Thinking about getting first iPhone (the iPhone 5s).

               Thinking about getting the iPhone 5s, this will be my first iPhone (always have been a Android user).
                       Can a bunch of you guys be OBJECTIVE PLEASE and tell me why I should get the iPhone 5s over the HTC One or the Samsung Galaxy 4s?
                           I have a iMac desktop. This is my main reason for getting the iPhone (beacuse of iCloud)...but I would like more information about the phone and how it compares with the other phones I mentioned.
                                                            Thank you.

    Like all devices, it has its little glitches from time to time, but overall its seems to work great...and I have the original iPhone...never had a real problem that couldnt be fixed by simply turning it off and on...
    As for payment questions, you may want to contact Optus, Telstra or Vodafone...looks like they are the carriers in Australia.
    (Scotland uses O2 as a carrier)

  • First iPhone

    I am hoping to buy my first iPhone soon. I am looking at the iPhone 5s (let me know any other suggestions please!) and I am wondering if anyone who has one can tell me a couple pros or cons about it. In particular, the battery life, camera quality, and what colour you have and if you'd change your mind. Thanks!

    Just install iTunes on his laptop (I'm assuming it's a PC; if it's a Mac iTunes will already be there), then connect the iPhone to the laptop with the USB cable that came with it.  iTunes should do the rest automatically.  You can set up the phone to back up to iCloud and sync with the laptop over WiFi, which I would highly recommend if your father never connects his phone to the laptop.  Once this has been done he doesn't really need to connect it again.  Pretty much everything except an upgrade to iOS 6 (and who knows when that will happen) can be done over the air.

  • What did the first iPhone look like

    My friend thinks the iPhone 3G was the first iPhone ever and I need proof that there was an iPhone before that please help with any photos or documentation from apple that shows that there was and original iPhone. Apparently all the evidence on the Internet is fake according to my friend.
