how easy is the iphone to set up if bought online

If you purchase an officially unlocked iPhone it won't come with a sim. When you get the phone contact your carrier or go to one of their stores & get a new sim. They will transfer your number & activate the sim. If you purchase a phone locked to your carrier, it will come with a sim installed & pre-activated. All you have to do is setup the phone to complete activation.

  • How to get the iPhone to remember the "manually manage" setting?

    The first time I plugged in my iPhone, I set it to "manually manage" under options. I am attempting to sync my iPhone to the same computer each time, but each time I plug in my iPhone, it forgets the "manually manage" setting. If I go to click the manually manage setting again, it wants to "erase and sync". I have done the "erase and sync" on the phone twice now and don't want to do it again - it is laborious to set up the library and playlists and podcasts over and over again. When I plug it in, despite having set the manually manage last time I sync'd, it won't let me drag anything into the iPhone (the iPhone music and podcast libraries are greyed out, and the manually manage checkbox under options is not checked).
    How can I make iTunes remember the "manually manage" setting so I don't have to resync the entire library each and every time?

    Hi Elisabeth,
    A couple of things you could try that might help out.
    First try resetting the iphone by holding down the power button on top of the iphone and the home button at the same time until you see just an apple logo. Then try connecting to itunes and setting the manually manage.
    If that does not work something might have become corrupted on the iphone and you can try a restore. This will completely erase the iphone and set it back to factory defaults. If you choose the restore option, after the restore you will see an option the restore from back up. Don't restore from back up, instead choose set up as new iphone. This way if any thing was corrupted previously to restoring the iphone you won't run the risk of putting it back on the iphone. Then you will se a page asking if you want to sync all music, video,... Make sure to uncheck this box since you are trying to set the iphone to manually manage.
    Here are a couple of articles from the apple support website that might help out.

    What is "ue speaker"?
    Ultimate Ears wirless bluetooth speaker?
    Set speaker to Pairing mode.
    On the iPhone, Settings > BlueTooth.
    Select the speaker.

    You cannot.
    IF you set up find my iphone on the iphone itself BEFORE it was lost AND it is on AND it has not been found and restored, then you may be able to get a location using icloud.
    Otherwise, you cannot track it at all.

    Replying to my own post - heh. I downloaded iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) which allowed me access to the files on the phone and there was the phantom movie in the DCIM folder. Deleted it, and all is well - although I still have 0.65gb of Other in iTunes.....

    how to restore the iphone 4 when you get a restore message error (-1)?

    If the iPhone was jailbroken, you get this error due to baseband mismatch. No help for such iPhones here in this forum.
    if not, Restore on another computer. If error persists it is hardware failure.

    Contact the carrier to whom it is locked, inquire about their process to unlock, and if you qualify.
    If it is already unlocked or was purchased as unlocked, simply insert a SIM from a supported carrier.

    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.

  • How to get the iphone serial number  in application?

    hello,  everyone
       i  really want to konw how to get the iphone serial number in aplication ?  As it's different from uniqueIdentifier ....
    thank you

    Michele is correct - sneep will help you get the serial from the running domain on the M3000 ,
    and it is a good idea to install STB on your machines.
    If that isn't possible for you, then sneep can be downloaded directly from [http://www.sun.com/sneep]
    I believe that on this platform, sneep gets the serial from the output of prtconf.
    There is a minor correction to be made :
    After installed SNEEP use "man sneep" for all technical details.The sneep man page is not linked into the shared man pages, so you need to use
    man -M /opt/SUNWsneep/man sneep
    with out going to OK prompt (Banner)It is worth noting that the serial shown in the OBP banner is not the product serial
    that you will find on the physical serial tag.
    The banner "serial" is the decimal equivalent of the host ID, which you normally get in hexadecimal from the "hostid" command.

    Probably not because the iPhone warranty is NOT international, but is country specific, so if you purchased it in the US, then it will have to go back to the US for repair.
    You can try and take it into a store in Hong Kong and see if they will help you, but if it is a US phone, then they have every right to refuse due to warranty cover and they also have different models if your phone needs replacing and they won't be able to give you the same model if the phone came to from the US and this is why warranty cover for the iPhone is country specific and NOT international.
    You can try, but you might be out of luck and if so, then there is nothing you can do except send the phone to any relatives that you have living in the US and see if they will take it to an Apple store in the US to get it repaired for you.  Otherwise you'll have to get it repaired on your next trip to the US.
    This is exactly why you should have thought very long and hard before purchasing a US iPhone and having exactly this situation where you can get nothing done about repairing the phone due to country specific warranty.
    The only other thing that you can do of course, is to buy a new iPhone from Hong Kong and then you will have no problem with warranty cover.

  • How to remove the mandatory field setting in output control

    Hi everybody,
    While printing a Payment Voucher through F-58 and FBZ5(reprint), there are two output devices, the first one is - printer for forms and second is - payment advice printer.
    In our case we have configured the cheque printing and payment voucher printing seperately. The cheque goes to first printer(kept mandatory field) and the payment voucher goes to second printer. One of our plant does not print the cheque from SAP, they only print the payment voucher because the cheque is manually prepared. How do I avoid the cheque printing. Is there any way out to print only the payment voucher through F-58 and FBZ5
    Please guide me how to tackle it or how to remove the mandatory field setting in the output control screen?
    Regards
    Paul

    Hi
    As of my understanding, there is no relation ship between the Sales Organization and this mandatory partner function.
    Here are few suggestions.
    1. Since Partner functions are defualted and made mandatory in the Partner Determination Procedure so you have to remove this Mandatory option for PE from the Partner Determination Procedure that is AG if using standard one.
    2. If you are using a single partner function than , Copy and create a New partner procedure and a new account group . Where in one you can default PE as mandatory and in another one you make a optional where it can be choosen manually while creating the customer.
    Follow the path to check for entries :
    SPRO > sales & distribution > Basic Function > Partner Determination > set up partner determination > select for customer master > select the partner procedure you are using AG as standard > then partner function in procedure > here maintian the check as required like, Mandatory or No check for Non Mandatory .
    Thanks
