  • Apple propose to repair the power button on 2/5. I give my iPhone 5 on 2/5. However, I still cannot get my iPhone on today 15/5. What's happen?

    I cannot find any way to complain. Since the Apple is so clever that it does not have an email. Even I call the service hotline. No one answer. So where do my iPhone go?

    No one here can help you or answer your question...there is no one from Apple here.
    If you want to know the status of your phone, call AppleCare.

  • HT201263 I cannot get my iphone to restore after the latest update, it seems this is the "recovery loop" my phone is "dead" can someone help please

    My Iphone 4s never restarted after installing the latest upgrade. I understand this is called the recovery loop. It will not restart after going through the recovery process in itunes. What do I do as the phone is completely dead to all intents and purposes. What on earth do I do???

    Try and put it DFU mode and do a manual install, as outlined in the link below.

    Thanks for the suggestion, Chris.  I actually did not resolve the issue which is why i did not post an answer. 
    it turns out that my iphone seems to default to an incorrect User ID (it defaults to an @me account, which is not something that i have ever used). 
    even when i change the User ID in my settings for the iTunes store, it still appears when i attempt to get updates for my existing apps.  however, it does seem to use the correct ID when i attempt to purchase new apps.
    If someone actually had an answer to correct this, i would love to update my existing apps. 
    Thank you.

    What tips have you tried so far?   Just so we don't waste our time telling you things you've already done.
    When you respond, also indicate which country and carrier you're using.   Also, is your phone brand new?  can you make a phone call / access the internet while on cellular?

  • My airport extreme (generation 5) was set up using wifi and has worked flawlessly (on macbook pro 2 iphones and window 7 HP pc)until recently. I have reset to factory defaults over and over but still cannot get on the internet. Any suggestions?

    My airport extreme (generation 5) was set up using wifi and has worked flawlessly (on macbook pro 2 iphones and window 7 HP pc)until recently. I have reset to factory defaults over and over but still cannot get on the internet. However I can then take my DSL cord and insert it in a different Ethernet port other than the WAN port and I can get internet on my Mac and iphones but only wifi on my husband's PC.  I hate to spend another $179 if this is just something I'm doing wrong. Please help

    I'm having a bit of trouble confirming that the ZyXEL is a combination modem & wireless-N router. If it is, then you really won't get any advantages of using the 802.11g AirPort.
    If the range of your ZyXEL is limited, you may find that doing either or both of the following will help: 1) Move the ZyXEL so that it is higher vs. lower in the room, that is away from any closed areas or placed in a metal cabinet, and 2) Changing radio channels. The latter is especially important in you live in an area where there are a number of competing Wi-Fi.
    A good utility to find out, is iStumbler. You would use this to find these other Wi-Fi and find which have the strongest signal value. Those that do, you would also want to note which channel they are operating on, and then, change yours to one that is at least 3-5 channels away. So, for example, if you find strong ones on channels 1 & 6, change yours to 11.

  • My phone is activated but I still cannot get calls or VMail

    My phone is activated but I still cannot get calls or setup my VMAIL. According to the service bar, I do have full service, but for some reason it says "unable to setup voicemail, try again later".

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    Hello Newfieblue71,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you're unable to get your iPhone to recognize your Officejet 4630. I will do my best to assist you! I would recommend following this entire HP document on Printing from an Apple Mobile Device. Click on printing with Apple AirPrint, then click on what if no AirPrint printers found message displays on your Apple device.
    Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you.
    Have a great day!
    I worked on behalf of HP.

  • I have installed Mountain Lion 10.8.2 but still cannot get email from my work exchange account. I'd appreciate any help.  Thank you.

    I have installed Mountain Lion 10.8.2 but still cannot get email from my work exchange account. I'd appreciate any help.  Thank you.

    You can go to the Apple online store and purcahse a copy of Mountain Lion.  This will give you a redemption code, which you can use to download Mountain Lion from the App Store.  Unfortuantely, I'm not aware of any other way to legally purchase it.  I have never seen Apple release Muontain Lion on DVD.
    In terms of Apple Service, they just need the serial number of the machine to check the purcahse date.  It is usually correct, to within a few weeks.  A quick Google search should give you the correct number to dial.
    I hope this helps.

    I have installed Mountain Lion 10.8.1 but still cannot get email from my work exchange account. I'd appreciate any help.  Thank you.

    I would delete the account and try to re-enter it. Also, you have to let your firm's IT department know that you want to sync work email on your personal devices before they actually work.

  • I have two libraries on separate computers. If i turned itunes match on in both computers would the two libraries merge? So if my iphone normally syncs with my laptop would i still only get the iphones library or would i get both as one?

    I have two libraries on separate computers. If i turned itunes match on in both computers would the two libraries merge? So if my iphone normally syncs with my laptop would i still only get the iphones library or would i get both as one?

    Yes, the two libraries should merge. However, you need to turn on match on one computer and let it finish before adding the second library.
    Once you turn march on n your phone then you don't sync it with iTunes, but the merged library will show up on the phone. If you don't turn on match on your phone and continue to sync then all of the music from both libraries should be available to sync to it.
    The only bit I can't confirm is what happens if you try to sync music to the phone which isnt actually downloaded into iTunes. Im not in a position to test that, but maybe someone else can help.
