Google Voice APP and Google Voice will use cell phone minutes.
My Verizon contract has 1400 minutes shared with 3 cell phones. I noticed that my cell number was using minutes from the calling plan. I normally call the other two cell phones, and my home number (which is on my friends of family calling list). My original intention was to be able to hide behind Google Voice and not allow my cell phone number to be broadcast. Google Voice would use whatever phone number was available on their server, make the call, then connect with my cell phone to complete the connection. I didn't notice that my minutes were being used until after someone else reported that they had exceeded their plan minutes after switching their cell phone to use their Google Voice number for outgoing calls.
I called Verizon concerning this issue, and their only response was to contact the third party.
I have now, and informed my friends, to only use their number and change the Google Voice APP, Making Calls setting to "Do not use Google Voice to make any calls".
Just thought others would like to know.

I bought another iPad for my daugther. Because she has no PC, I loaded her iPad with apps from My PC. Now she is in Oceanside CA. And I am in Iraq with my iPad and PC.. My question is: How can my daughter load some apps of her own? If I buy her iTunes gift cards, can she redeem them on her iPad with out using my Pin number (as that would give her access to my credit card)! I prefer to gifted her purchases, not allow her to purchase with access to my credit card. Can this be done?
well if the ipad is on your itunes account then her apps and music etc will be billed to you. but if you give her gift cards you should take off your credit card because itunes won't tell you when you are all through with your gifted money and are back to useing your credit card until after you have made a purchase

Trying to sync my iPad and get the message that "all existing apps and their data will be replaced"
Previously my Windows 7 laptop didn't recognise my iPad but I persevered and now am getting the message when trying to update the iOS that if I sync, "all existing apps and their data will be replaced" so I'll lose everything I've bought since I last synced (which is a while). How can I back up my apps before syncing fully and then updating. I have 'transferred purchases' using the File menu but still getting the message.
Message was edited by: annielevoSounds like you have created a new library somehow. Ideally you would restore your old library and the problem would go away. If that is not possible then you should be able to:
Backup the device to the computer
Transfer your purchases into an authorized library
Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
Download remaining past purchases from iTunes in the Cloud, where available
Restore the device from the backup
This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

my friend took my phone and tried to guess my password to unlock it, and he locked me out of my phone for a minute, but when it unlocked and i tried to use my phone all of my apps, photos, all my data had been deleted. how can i get them back?
As Ocean20 say, your only shot at recovering the photos and data is to restore from a backup (with iTunes if you took the backup with iTunes, through iCloud if you took the backup through iCloud).
The erasure is to prevent your data from falling into the hands of somebody who takes your phone and eventually guesses your password. If you feel that the inconvenience caused by this feature and your friend outweighs the trouble that somebody could cause if they got possession of your contacts and other data, you can change this behaviour.

I am living now in UAE if I bought an I pad from your website is the warenty for it and how I will use the waranty
You can find authorized Apple dealers in Abu Dhabi by clicking here. They can answer purchase questions and most can handle warranty service.
By the way, this forum is for questions about the iPod touch, not the iPad. If you have questions specific to the iPad, it would be best to ask them in the iPad forum.

Aside from deleting application does anything else have to be done?Backup your iPhone. Tap Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > > Back Up Now

Hai Matt
I have a problem with download a new app. While I bought iphone5, I take iphone to shopkeeper for download some app and videos that he used his Apple ID . That's t problem now.. Not all the time his ID is appearing but some times his Apple ID is appearing that time I can't download app, videos, songs.. So please guide me to remove that ID or how to solve that..
Regards
BabuCheck Settings/iTunes and AppStore/AppleID and make sure that your AppleID is filled in. If not , sign out and sign in with the correct info.
To make sure that no other apps or videos are on your device than the one you bought, set it up as new device, explained here: How to back up your data and set up as a new device
Content that is not bought with your ID can't be used on your phone, that's why his ID and password is asked when you try to use those apps downloaded in the store. -
I am forced to close the app and I can't use that tool or the same thing happens. Anyways to solve it? Thanks!
Hi Ignacio,
I am currently using version 1.2.1.
I just tried it with a smaller project and the loading wheel did not appear but the brush seemed to have lagged on the screen. It returned to normal after about 20 seconds.
Yes, I have used all tools and this is the only tool that makes it happen.
Thanks. -
Hi I want to attach word documents to yahoo mail app and some job portals using iPad I don't know how to attach it can u ppl help me thru this issue
would I be able to "upload" (not sure how else to say it) my existing folders and subfolders containing all my emails so that they are all available on my new IMAP service, while still being available on my Mac?
Not easily, no. There's no direct transfer option between POP and IMAP, especially across email providers. The best you could do would be to forward all of your emails to your new address, although it's not clear that you need to - dropping your sbcglobal.net account doesn't instantly render all your existing mail void - it'll still be in your Mail client, you can still read it, search it, etc., it just won't be on your provider's server.
I have toyed with the idea of getting a MobileMe account. Would that solve my issue/question above?
MobileMe would be viable, especially if you're interested in synching your various iOS devices. It's not free, of course, unlike Yahoo and Gmail, although you've already discounted them...
I have also toyed with purchasing my own URL, but it's hard to tell from the sites (1and1, Namecheap, etc.) if they come with IMAP email accounts included.
Some registrars offer email hosting bundles with a domain registration. This could be a good way to go. GoDaddy, for example, have a email hosting option for domains you register with them. -
If I use Erase all content and settings it will set my phone to new right?
I have an iPhone 4s
OS 6.1.3
I want to make sure everything is deleted, data apps etc and I want to start new again, RESTORE to new
If I go to
Settings>General>Reset> Erase all Content and Settings
that will take my phone to a new state right? I want it to be completely new and to start over
Also I read about people restoring the phone, But is Restore different than taking it back to out of the box status?I Thought erase all content and settings is the only way to restore the phone to new.
SOunds like you are saying there are two ways to restore to new?
what is the second way? -
I have disabled my iphone 5 and connected it to Itunes, It now says its doing a sotware update. does this mean it will wipe the old password off and be able to use my phone again?
When you restore your iPhone, it will erase everything from your iPhone including the passcode. You can restore a backup from iTunes or iCloud to get your infromation back though. This article may help http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212

How can i edit my contacts?and i dont really used my phone and its automatically add a contacts and email adds.. I dont know why that happen..i just turn my phone off and this is happen..
Contacts are synced with a compatible programme in the computer; in the iCloud or with Yahoo and Google Mail. You can directly "edit" a contact on the phone and/or within the programme that you are syncing your contacts with.
Have you configured/setup mails on your iPhone? If yes, check the contents of the mail account(s) individually. (including iCloud) from SETTINGS - MAILS, CONTACTS, CALENDARS
"Contacts" if chosen from the mail account (s) would add email addresses to your contacts.

I have blocked my credit card on my itunes account, and was told to go in and click none so that I can still push through free apps and songs already purchased to my phone and I can not find it anywhere
I had the same problem. Go back into Verizon Tunes. At the bottom of the screen you should see 3 dots. Touch them and that will bring up additional choices, one being Downloads. In the Downloads choice is 2 bars. One bar is Pending Downloads (aka Music Inbox) the other bar shows your download history.
