Hi, I need help with starting off my iphone 3GS

I tried to register my iphone. Can't do it . I have these IMEI and ICCID numbers but wasn't asked for them yet. Am I doing something wrong?
Please, help.

All you should have to do is plug it into iTunes and activate it.
Where are you? Where did you get the phone, and who is your carrier?

If the iPhone was hacked or jailbroken, can't be discussed.
If no, see post above ^^.

Sorry.
The iPhone is of no use until/unless the previous owner removes it from their account.
You will need to find the prior owner or return the iPhone.

Need help with my iTunes on iPhone 5 and Macbook Pro

Need help with my iPhone 5 and my Macbook Pro. I was purchased some music on itunes at my mac. Some reason I deleted those music from both on Mac and iPhone 5. Today, I went to my iPhone iTunes store inside of iCloud to redownload my puchased. But those song won't able to sync back to my iTunes library on my Mac. Can anyone help me with that ??....

You've posted to the iTunes Match forum, which your question does not appear to be related to. You'll get better support responses by posting to either the iTunes for Mac or iTunes for Windows forum. Which ever is more appropriate for your situation.

New User needs help with starting SDK

I downloaded the J2EEsdk-1_4 files and completed the installation. I have looked at all the tutorials and quick-start documentation, but cannot find how to begin building an application. All I needed was very minimal Java parts to write a "Hello World" program for a class, but it prompted me to get the whole package.
How do I get to a prompt window to write some code, then compile it, then run it? I tested the local server as it suggested and it is working, and I ran their sample program and it worked.
I just need a pointer to get me started. I don't need all the web deployemnt stuff, etc....
Sorry for the silly questions but you gotta start somewhere.
Thanks

Brent In Iowa, you're on the Air.
Thanks for taking my call, Larry.
Umm, yes, I'd like to ask Mr. McNealy a question.
Go ahead.
umm, yes, Mr. McNealy. I like your language
Thanks, Brent. We hope with developers like you, to make it the most widely used language in the world. It's people like you that will helps us squash that bastard Gates and make me...umm, I mean Sun Microsystems the richest company known to man-kind.
Yeah but that's my problem Mr. McNealy. How do I write Hello World?
First, Brent, ya gotta download the right SDK. Not the J2EE but the J2SE. Then ya gotta follow the links on the let for the tutorials.
Thanks for your question. Our next caller, George is in Boise, Idaho. Hello, Boise.

Need help with starting over in LR

I realized that my importing process is creating an image folder structure in LR that does not mirror my HD image folder structure, so I need to begin again. Thankfully I just started and only imported a couple hundred photos w/o many edits and have created 6 folders.
My question: what's the best way to clean out LR for a new start? Should I simply delete the LR catalog then reimport? Or should I delete the images from LR (leaving them on my HD, of course) then reimport? Does it even matter which route I choose?
Finally, to get the folder structures to match (LR folders and HD folders to mirror each other), what do I need to do? I have thousands of photos I will be eventually importing, and I want the file structure in LR to match my HD. The top images folder on my HD is simply called "PHOTOS." Beneath that is "FAMILY" "STUDENTS" and "PHOTO SHOOT" and then there are subs below those.
If I bring in the top "Photos" folder, all the others will follow and then I will have thousands to process in one import, and I know this would not be the way to go.
So, how can I match the folder structures while only importing a handful at a time? Do I somehow create a folder in LR called "Photos" or do I import the actual "photos" folder from my HD. Just a little unclear about all this and appreciate any advice.
Thanks.

I realized that my importing process is creating an image folder structure in LR that does not mirror my HD image folder structure, so I need to begin again.
When you do an import, the LR folder structure automatically matches your HD structure. You only get this problem if you move or rename the folders/photos in Windows Explorer or Mac Finder. For a beginner, you probably shouldn't be moving/renaming photos/folders outside of Lightroom; you should move photos/folders inside of Lightroom.
My question: what's the best way to clean out LR for a new start? Should I simply delete the LR catalog then reimport? Or should I delete the images from LR (leaving them on my HD, of course) then reimport? Does it even matter which route I choose?
If you delete the photos from Lightroom and reimport, you lose a lot of information. This is not recommended and should definitely be a last resort, only if you can't fix the Lightroom catalog. It is relatively easy, since you don't have a lot of photos, to fix this in Lightroom ... for each folder that has a question mark indicating it doesn't know where the photos are, right-click on it and select Update Folder Location. Then, stop moving your folders/photos in the operating system.
Finally, to get the folder structures to match (LR folders and HD folders to mirror each other), what do I need to do? I have thousands of photos I will be eventually importing, and I want the file structure in LR to match my HD. The top images folder on my HD is simply called "PHOTOS." Beneath that is "FAMILY" "STUDENTS" and "PHOTO SHOOT" and then there are subs below those.
As I said, you stop using Windows or Mac to move or rename your photos and folders. Problem solved.
However, I believe you have adopted a fundamentally flawed and inefficient approach in your use of folders. In Lightroom, folders are no longer organizing tools; they are simply storage locations. Lightroom gives you much more efficient and superior organizing tools (keywords, metadata, collections), and it is best if you abandon these thoughts of organizing via folders. Instead, you make these descriptions into Keywords in Lightroom, and you leave your photos in whatever folder they happen to be in, with whatever name the folders currently have. Keywords are not limited the way folder hierarchies are ... a photo can be in only one folder and one hierarchy; whereas a photo can have many keywords and exist in many hierarchies. This gives you the ability to search on many many different criteria in Lightroom, which is much more flexible.
So to sum up ... fix your catalog, as described above. Then, do not think about folders; do not rename or move folders; just leave them exactly as they exist. From this point on, you organize with Lightroom tools.

Need help with starting a simple calculator

I have this simple calculator I just started on, and I'm having just a few problems. First of all, I don't know how to append text to a textfield. Maybe I would have to create a string buffere or something. Then, when the user clicks one of the buttons, the compiler goes crazy, and nothing is displayed.
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

           * will show the inputed values and outputed
           * results
          JPanel jpDisplay = new JPanel();
          jpDisplay.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
          txtDisplay = new JTextField(15);
          txtDisplay.setHorizontalAlignment(JTextField.RIGHT);

                    txtDisplay.setText(strNames[i]);
     public static void main(String[] args)
          Calculator calc = new Calculator();

First of all, I don't
know how to append text to a textfield.
textField.setText( textField.getText() + TEXT_YOU_WANT_TO_APPEND );
Then,
when the user clicks one of the buttons, the compiler
goes crazy, and nothing is displayed.No, the compiler doesn't go crazy, the compiler has done it's job by then. However, you do get a NullPointerException, and the stacktrace tells you that the problem is on the following line:
txtDisplay.setText(strNames);
It turns out that strNames is null. I leave it to you to find out why. ;-)

New timecapsule need help with start up

I recently switched to an iMac from a Dell and now am trying to add a timecapsule primarily for automated back up although if I can use the print feature that would be a nice added benefit. I have a modem/router from Consolidated Communications which is located in a different room than my computer. My preference would be to have the timecapsule located with the computer so that I can back up more quickly over ethernet and have my printer plugged into the timecapsule so that my iPad and other laptops can access it. Is this possible? I have tried setting the timecapsule up wireless as well as plugged directly into the router, in both cases I cannot get a valid ip address and then have trouble with my iMac accessing my existing network as it tries to connect through the timecapsule rather than to my current network via the built in airport. Thanks in advance for your help.

Can I join that network wirelessly so that I can have the TC in the rom with the computer (far from the router/wireles modem) and still use ethernet connection and USB for printer?
Yes, with two caveats: 1) It will really depend on the distance and what obstructions are between the other wireless router and the TC to determine how well the TC can connect to its wireless network, and 2) Configured to join, the TC's Ethernet ports will not be enabled. However, its USB port will.
These two items may preclude it being the desired end state that you are looking for. Typically to enable the TC to also provide network connectivity (either by wire or wireless), it would have to be configured for a WDS. Unfortunately, most non-Apple routers are not WDS-compatible.
This leaves you with at least two choices: 1) Connect the two routers by Ethernet or if that is not practical or desirable, consider Powerline adapters, or 2) Configure the TC as a standalone wireless router. With the second option, you would have to switch wireless networks to print or perform Time Machine backups ... again, not a viable solution.
I would suggest considering the Powerline adapter approach for your situation.

Need help with start up.

I let my my uncle use the internet on my macbook and he shut it down. But now when i go to turn it on, it takes forever on the first loading screen with the apple symbol. And after that is done it goes to the blue screen and just sits there. What should i do, this is my first mac so i really dont know how to work on this.
THanks

Insert disc that came with macbook - hold c while it boots then do disk utility from disc. Then boot into safe mode to have the file system checked automatically (or do the file system check yourself in Single User Mode).

Need help with iCloud on my iPhone

I bought a new iMac and decided it was time to update my Apple ID to my newest email address. When I started to do that, I was also required to change my password because it was "too weak." I did that, no problem. Updated my ID, no problem. On my iPhone 5, I changed my Apple ID, updated my email and iTunes. However, when I tried to update the iCloud on my iPhone, I can't. I have searched the forums and it seems that if I can delete the iCloud account from my phone that should allow me to correct it. PROBLEM: iPhone shows the old email address as the ID for iCloud. I am required to enter my password for the ID because Find My iPhone requires it to be turned off (deleted). When I enter the password, it says invalid ID or password. I tried both passwords, old and new. That didn't work. Apparently it is the ID that is wrong. I guess I should have deleted it before I changed the ID and password? Any suggestions? What if I reset my iPhone to default settings? Will that delete iCloud? Or is there a way to turn off Find My iPhone without the password?

If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Need help with delivery address for iPhone 6

I am trying to change the delivery address for my iPhone but UPS says I need to talk to Apple and Apple says its up to UPS. UPS says there is a dedicated line for Apple to call UPS to change the address and Apple says no such line exists. Has anyone successfully changed a delivery address for an Apple product? If I don't figure it out in the next few days my phone is going back to China.

Minimize your iTunes, right click on your Desktop, click Properties, click the Settings tab. Increase your screen resolution to 1024 x 768. If it looks OK, click OK. You should be able to continue with your iPod.

Need Help with music on my iphone with a new itunes download

Hi,
My old computer has died. All my music is on my iphone 5. Ive installed itunes onto a new computer and cant seem to get my music from my phone onto the itunes libary on my new computer. Also every time I try and get the music from my new computer onto my iphone it comes up with a error????
I cant seem to sync the phone to the new itunes either, even though its the same apple id and password.
Any help would be awesome.
Cheers Evelyn )

Once the Mac can see your Mac then you can use a program such as PhoneView (http://www.ecamm.com/mac/phoneview/) to see the content of you iPhone and transfer it to the Mac.
Did the Mac die or did the HD die? If the issue is the Mac then you should be able to remove the HD and install in an external case to transfer the content to the new Mac.

Need Help with Photo albums in iPhone 4s!!

Help! Just synced my new iphone 4s, but now I have three albums in my photos! Not only do I have the "camera roll," I also have "photo library, " and "internal storage." The internal storage album duplicated all my photos , so now they appear twice!!! Is this taking up a lot of "space" on my iPhone? I would love to get rid of the "internal storage" album, but don't know how. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Please, try "Photo Transfer WiFi" or "Sync Photos to Storage" from the App Store. Does it solves your problem?
I recommend you the second app. It allows you to send all your Camera Roll photos and videos to the desktop in one tap!

Need help with using Factory Unlocked iPhone 4 (GSM) in US

Hi all I have an factory unlocked iPhone 4 (GSM) which is bought overseas. I will come to the US soon but I don't know how can I continue using with the US carriers.
Any solution?

If it is truly unlocked, just sign up for a plan with AT&T when you get to the US and insert the MicroSIM. AT&T will not permit pre-paid plans on iPhones. T-Mobile will, but they are not a supported carrier and you will not get 3G data speeds, only Edge. Other features may not work correctly such as MMS messaging, FaceTime, etc.
