Warranty and Support are only valid in the country of origin. You will need to take the device to whatever country it originally came from.
Apple will not accept shipments from outside the country nor will they return it to an address outside the country.

How stopping a version and start a new one from the previous

Hi,
May be someone could help me to erase my basics questions on Robosource control.
We have to manage several versions of our product documentation and It is not clear how it is managed by robosource control. The documentation tells what can do RBSC (and it seems to be what we need) but they do not explain how to do it (prerequisites, ordered steps, etc), and I do not really succeeded. May be I missed the basics.
All our projects are added to Robosource control 3 from RoboHelp7 Html from a local directory.
In the database, we inserted them in a directory corresponding to a version V01.r01.
I would like to stop this version and start a new one V01.02 with the projects which are V01.01. What is the best way to do this:
Do I just label the directory V01.01 and "Pin" it ? In that way how can I recover all the projects and files that were labelled and pinned for version V01.01, if I need them later ?
Copy and rename directory V01.01 into V01.02 to continue the file modifications without modifiying the same project in V01.01?
My questions are quite similar to Kristen's questions.
Please can anyone help ! Thanks !

Then the (App) tabs from that window are lost unless you can restore an older copy of the sessionstore.js file (Time Machine?) that has that lost window.

Hi gene98,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you still need to change the country for your iTunes Store account. Please review the attached article for information and instruction on how to do so.

Time capsule was back-up stopped halfway and started a new back-up

I was backing up 220+ GB when it stopped at 120+ GB and started a new back-up of 85+ GB. Is this normal?

Doesn't sound normal no..
Time Machine is its own unique way of doing things.
Verify the backup.

HT1349 just got a new iphone. How do you transfer phone numbers from an old iphone to a new one

How do you transfer phone numbers from a 3gs to a 4s?

PLug your 3gs into iTunes, in the left panel right click on your iPhone and create a backup. After the back up is complete plug your 4s into iTunes, right click on it in the left panel and select restore from backup, select the backup file from your 3gs and that should load everything from your 3gs to your new iphone

How do you check if the replacement phone is a refurb or new one ?

Hi Guys
Can anyone tell me what does the Facotry code 70 stands for ? because I am getting a replacement phone and I see that the Serial number starts with 70.
when I checked in the below site.. its not giving me any information about whether refurbished or new one ?
http://www.chipmunk.nl/cgi-fast/applemodel.cgi
this is the serial they gave me....70116***A4S
BUt I am not able to find out the waranty status or anything about this phone.. Do I need to activate it first.. so that it gets reflected in Apple site and then I get details ??
My Earlier phone serial starts with 79 (this is manufacutred in china) am curious to know what does the factory code "70" stands for... hope this is not for refurbished.

As I said, you walk in and put an ultimatum to them and they will happily give you your money back. But they can't do anything about the ETF and won't try. That's for you to sort out with the carrier
And even if they refuse, you go ahead and try that consumer complaint. You aren't likely to get very far on that route. Because the first thing the Apple lawyers will do is ask for the paperwork from your appointment so they can see where you signed the bit about "I understand and accept the terms of service". They can't be held accountable for you signing something you didn't bother to read. But you can be held to the terms, which include the sources for replacements and the possibility of receiving a refurbished product. So again, the best you might get is your money back from Apple. But you will still be out the money from the carrier if you are under contract.
And yes it will most likely be your money and not a new phone. Why? Because Apple has millions of customers they don't need a douche acting one like you so they will happily pay you back your money and send you on your way.

How do you change your Apple ID in iCloud and Facetime, etc. after changing your Apple ID?

I changed my Apple ID and now all of the related applications like Facetime, iCloud, and others are prompting for the old Apple ID and I can not find any way to change the id for these apps. Can anyone tell me what has to be done? Should I change the Apple ID beck to the original?

Basically, you have to "sign out" of all those services using your previous Apple ID.
Here is a list:
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
It would be nice if Apple placed more emphasis on this excerpt from Changing your Apple ID
Before you change your Apple ID:
Sign out of all Apple features and services that you use with your current Apple ID.
... but if you did not, it's easily remedied.

How do you transfer game data from an old Ipod to a new one?

I am trying to transfer apps from an old Ipod to a new one. World War and Call of Mini: Double Shot will not transfer the game data. Any suggestions? I have backed up and restored via Icloud with no success.

Well I don't think either game supports iCloud game data save. If they do it will be in the game settings. Best of luck. Cheers.

Time Machine Question (want to keep old back up and start a new one)

Hello
I have a MacBook Pro that I back up using Time Machine to a Segate External Harddrive. I have several weeks worth of back ups stored using Time Machine. Then I needed to have my system wiped clean due to overheating. I just got it back and I have been working to restore my system (application by application.... folder by folder, file by file) from the most recent Time Machine.
However I didn't put it all back - I kind of picked and choose what I reinstalled.
I would like to set my MacBook Pro back up with Time Machine BUT I really really do not want to overwrite the old backups. In my ideal world I want to start a whole new set of backups. However I can't figure out how to do that.
I tried changing the name of the folders in Time Machine and that didn't work. I tried copying them, that didn't work either. It keeps telling me "The operation can’t be completed because it isn’t supported."
Is there any way to start a whole new time machine back up using the same external hard drive? This way I still have my old Time Machine Back ups should I need them (from my computer before we wiped it clean).
Thanks!
Alison

That's usually a recipe for disaster. You're likely to miss all sorts of things that way. Plus, if you have any "complex" apps (typically, the ones that come with their own installers and put other files on your system), they won't work properly, if at all, unless you also copy those files. Or reinstall them from the original discs.
Your best bet is to do a full system restore, then delete what you don't want.

Time Machine won't necessarily do that. But it will make a new full backup of the "new" drive (since it was erased, it's treated as a different drive). If there's not enough room for it, it will start deleting old backups trying to make room for the new one.
(That doesn't happen if you do a full system restore, or use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant to put your data back.)
You can avoid that by manually telling Time Machine to "associate" the new drive with the old backups, per #B6 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting. TM will then do an "incremental" backup, of just what's new or different from the last backup.
If you don't do that, you won't see the backups of the "old" drive normally, but you can via the procedure in #E3 of the same link.

If there's enough room on the backup disk, you don't need to.

Again, if there's room, you don't need to do that. If there isn't, you can't, short of using a different disk.
But if there's room, and you want to keep the old backups indefinitely, you might be able to create a second partition, and start backing-up to it. See #3 in Using Disk Utility.

How can I remove all my bookmarks from iCloud and start a fresh with only the ones on my iMac

I accidentally deleted bookmark gilders on my iPad 4 and iCloud removed them from my iMac, iPhone 5, iPhone 4, iPad 2 and MacBook Pro. I turned off Safari on all devices for syncing with iCloud and used Time Machine to restore my Bookmarks.plist on my iMac, but iCloud keeps removing it and replacing the plist with the latest version. I want to remove all the Safari a bookmarks from iCloud, but don't know how to do this, can anyone help.

Just a note about the difference between these two things:
* "export" and "import" use an ancient HTML document format that all browsers can understand. When you import bookmarks, Firefox may place them into an Imported Bookmarks folder, or into Unsorted Bookmarks. This does not displace existing bookmarks, and Firefox does not automatically remove duplicates.
* "backup" and "restore" use a more comprehensive JSON data file, which contains extra information about your bookmarks (such as tags) not contained in the traditional export file. HOWEVER, a restore completely replaces all existing bookmarks, so the restore feature cannot be used to merge in a set of additional bookmarks.
Related support articles:
* [[Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file to back up or transfer bookmarks]]
* [[Import Bookmarks from a HTML file]]
* [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]
Some users find the disk-based Windows Favorites folder a convenient way to organize bookmarks. If you do, too, and you do not need to preserve tags on your bookmarks, you could export each profile's bookmarks to HTML and import them all into IE11. Organize them in the Windows Favorites folder, then export from IE11 to HTML and import that file into each Firefox profile. See: [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/add-view-organize-favorites].
