I am ready to give up on the Iphone RE: emails

I have a few more days left in my return window, and I am seriously considering it. I wasn't able to send emails, but receive them, so I took the iphone back to AT&T and he redid my settings, tested it while I was there and was able to get the phone to send an email. I emailed a test email to my friend and almost immediately got a response from her that she had received it. I was able to reply with no problem. Now, a couple of hours later, I am at home and I can't get it to send an email. It seems to get hung up on sending it and takes forever for it to finally give me an error message which usually says something to the effect of a failed server or something. I have wanted this phone for so long and want to love it, but honestly, I am ready to give up on it and get something else. Can anyone help me figure out what I am doing wrong????

Ok, that CWMX.COM bit is proof now to me it is because BellSouth blocks you from sending unless on their network. that is a free server (workaround) to send. It is needed when on Edge. But now that you are home and on WiFi (which is a prefered connection as it is MUCH faster) now while on WiFi, you ARE on their network and they don't like you using the free server. You need to have it set to what your network (ISP) wants (which is what you computer has setup on it if you look at those settings, odds are same as incoming).
So here is the issue you have.
The guy set it up that you can send email anytime you are on Edge (which will be when you are not home on your WiFi network).
When at home, you cannot send email while on wifi unless you temp. turn off WiFi (where you just said you saw where). If you turn it off, you can send. Then you can turn WiFi back on to get fast speed with internet again.
So all in all not too bad. When not at home, you can send. When at home...well you have your computer for email....but if you need to send via phone, you have to turn off wifi.
Once again, this is BellSouth stopping you not the iPhone. You may consider getting a free email account elsewhere (gmail for example) and telling all your friends to email you there from now on and just use bellsouth for junk mail, shopping, etc.

I give right in the iphone what is not works

i give right in the iphone what is not works

the problem is that i did not actually change my apple account, i only changed my creditcard number. for som e reason when trying to update apps it shows an apple id with wrong emailadres it says @ homail.com instead of hotmail.
so actually i don t have a new account. if i understand you correctly i will not be able to update all my apps? i just have to buy them again? that would be really stupid..

On the Apple webiste, I read that you must run OS 10.6.8 in order to sync the iPhone 5 with the computer. However, in the tech specs on the "Buy the iPhone now" email I received at my .me email address, it list the OS sytem needed as 10.5.8. Which is it

In Reply to all fellow Apple fans: It is great that someone found a work-around to the iTunes 11.4 no syncing problem. I think that is fine for the short term. And I am really glad that we customers have a forum to share information and experiences regarding Apple's products. However, as someone here said, we are all customers; and posting a problem here "IN HOPES THAT APPLE READS THESE POSTS" is NOT a way to resolve this issue or any issue.
PLEASE CONTACT APPLE: Apple Service Center: 1-800-275-2273 - Once you get a ticket number then and only then is this documented and then Apple can follow-through and alert the engineers who will fix this.
The "CWA2" work-around band-aid does several things in addition to reverting back to iTunes 11.3.1. :
1) It ensures that Apple continues to know nothing of the problem.
2) It ensures that the faulty code that is within 11.4 remains there and is perpetuated into future versions.
3) It ensures that YOU can never upgrade to future versions. (If the resident faulty code remains and perpetuates)
So once you have reverted back to 11.3.1, the problem APPEARS to have gone away (FOR YOU) but you have not solved the problem.
Again, respectfully,
1) Sending feedback to apple (using the "Report Bugs To Apple" menu item in Safari will get the information to someone, somewhere and add it to the pile of issues, complaints, suggestions, etc.
2) CALLING the Apple service/support Center at 1-800-275-2273 will put you in touch with a real APPLE person who will begin the process of documenting and forwarding this issue on to those who will fix it.
and
3) emailing Apple directly will make sure that they get the information.
lets get this fixed !!!!!!!!!

TS3694 upgrade from 4.3.3 to 5.1.1 b208 gives an error " the iphone could not be updated because the firmware is not compatible"

I recieved an error while trying to update from ios 4.3.3 to 5.1.1 b208 the error:" the iphone could not be updated because the firmware file is not compatible"

This often happens when iTunes is not up to date. Try updating iTunes to the latest version, then try updating your phone again.

Will iOS 6 give Siri to the iPhone 3GS?

iOS 6 is offered to iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S and the iPad 2 and 3, and apple has for sure announced that the iPads will receive Siri, but does that mean the iPhone 3GS will as well?

Taken from Apple's web site
*Siri will be available only on iPhone 4S and iPad (3rd generation) and requires Internet access. Siri may not be available in all languages or all areas, and features may vary by area. Cellular data charges may apply.

Does the iphone remove emails automatically??

I've been looking at the iphone5 or 4s, but someone told me something alarming, and I wanted to check this officially first please.
I use my phone for business, so when I am on the move, I can check back at emails. ie. 2-3 months ago, or evening just a month ago at times.
On my current non-Apple handset I can see emails as far back as I choose, because I have not deleted them. This has only baout 300mb or storage but has a MicroSD 16gb card that does not use storage for emails.
Is it true that iPhone removes emails automitically, and if so how far back? And is there a way to switch this function off please?
Many thanks.

As with any other email client, there is a setting with a POP account for removing messages from the server after being downloaded. What the iPhone's Mail app doesn't include is a right away after being downloaded option.
All server stored mailboxes with an Exchange or IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server with each each email client used to access the account. There is no setting to automatically delete messages for an Exchange or IMAP account with the iPhone's Mail app except for the account's Trash mailbox which is the same with an email client on your computer.

I'm ready to give up on the

i just got my zen micro on Friday night, and it's dri'ven me to so much frustration that I'm about ready to sell it off after just 2 days and swtich to iPod instead.
st thing i got it on Friday was to charge it up fully and started loading songs. Who knew, lucky me got one where the headphone jack didn't work. only the left earphone had sound, so i had to take it back and get it changed on Saturday. after charging it till 3am last nite, i started to d/l songs onto it, but met up with the language problem. All my chinese songs titles wouldn't display properly. After spending 2 hours fiddling around with Creative mediasource, Zen micro explorer, windows media player, windows explorer, and checking out this forum, and changing all the settings as pple had posted on this forum, i gave up and went to sleep.
this morning, i decided to try again, yippee, the chinese fonts worked well. But i still can't see chinese fonts on Creative mediasource. I have to use win media player or ZM explorer to transfer songs. BUT! but now, i'm trying to d/l more songs, so I connected the USB cable, and voila! the 'Docked' screen doesn't show up! the USB port is detected (mine is USB. so win xp shows a warning message), but none of the programs detect the Zen Micro. it's as good as not being connected at all, so i can't d/l anything now!!!
another thing is the s/w provided with the Zen Micro is totally not user-friendly at all. When i first installed it, i got 2 pages of gibberish where i had to select something from 2 drop-down menus, before reaching the page where they install the 4 s/w. so i totally have no idea what i selected in the 2 pages before. And i still haven't figured out how to use Creative mediasource (no idea which panel shows what info) and how to display languages on it properly.
i'm not some genius at computers and gadgets, but so far have found it painless to install/use my VCR, VCD and DVD players, palm, no-name mp3 player and loads of other s/w, so why am i having so much problems with the Zen micro!!!
Can somebody pleeaseee help me with the USB thing and explain the s/w installation thing, before i decide to blow the $400 and start bashing it on my table. arghhh!

the language thing is the least of my problems right now. i actually managed to figure it out somehow. right now the ZM displays Traditional chinese nicely, but only if i use the Zen Micro Explorer or Windows Media Player to transfer the songs. I now have the same problem as cvmc, the songs that have Simplified Chi or Japanese shows up as gibberish. Is there some way to make Trad Chi, Simp Chi and Japanese display nicely all at one time?
Anyway, right now, since the ZM doesn't detect the USB cable when i plug it in, there's nothing i can do at all. My computer detects the ZM, but the ZM doesn't show the "Docked" screen,
i really don't know what to do now. Do i take it in to Creative for another exchange? or what?
I was thinking of getting more stuff from Creative, but just one experience has really put me off buying Creative products

Why is the iPhone's email SO slow?

I am really getting sick and tired of seeing "Loading....loading....loading". It's been 20 minutes now that I'm waiting for a 3.5MB picture to load, while 2 of my friends on the email chain of have BlackBerry's have long replied. Maybe it's time to check out the Curve.
<post edited by host>

My iPhone worked perfectly but yesterday it wouldn't sync with my Mac: it didn't add new entries in my Address Book (I have 1300 and cannot do this by hand!). Eventually I started afresh ... I managed the sync after resetting sync history (all entries on Mac now on iPhone, but new ones on iPhone are now gone). I can get the missing data back though.
Furthermore, I set everything re Mail and Safari like it was (I wrote it down the first time I did this and couldn't get it going) but no go: "Could not activate EDGE: You are not subscribed to EDGE". I do not use EDGE - I did set Network to Data Roaming (like the first time) but doesn't work.
Any suggestions?

Can one edit the iPhone's email address suggestion history?

I am interested in editing, read delete, certain pop-up email address suggestions that occur below when entering text into the email address field on my iPhone3G. Can this be done? I have tried editing this list via the mail progam in osx to no avail. Help me please!

Can this be done?
Not in the iOS mail app, no. The only way to "edit" these addresses(if you can call it that), is to restore your phone as a "new" device in iTunes(not from backup). Followed by syncing your iTunes content back to your phone. Doing that will remove all of these addresses...not really an edit, per se.
You can suggest Apple add that featured here(you're not the first one to post about this):

The BEST solution for gmail on the iPhone

OK, so after much poking around, I finally figured out the best solution for using gmail on the iPhone: IMAP support.
While I think Google is still rolling this out to all users, once you get it, USE IT! It basically keeps your mail app synced with gmail, and even supports the use of folders/labels.
To see if your gmail account is ready for IMAP, go to the settings option in gmail and see if one of the tabs says "Forwarding and POP/IMAP." If you don't have IMAP available on your account yet, it won't say IMAP.
Here's some links to get you started:
setting up IMAP for gmail on your iPhone:
https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=77702
how actions in your mail app sync to gmail:
https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=77657
I hope this helps out everyone as much as it's helped me. I was a little frustrated before using POP, but gotta love IMAP! I'm not too sure the impact that this has on your battery life, but so far it's working well for me. Enjoy!

Gmail and IMAP have totally change my tune about the iPhone's email abilities. I was getting frustrated with the inability to reliably get mail (Message has not been downloaded...), sync (have to delete mail from both iPhone and desktop Mac), etc., but now I have all my POP email accounts automatically forward to my Gmail account, and I only check Gmail with the iPhone and MacPro. So far, it's a whole new iPhone experience! No more errors - ALL mail comes through perfectly - and no need to manually sync!
Note that, when setting up the Gmail/IMAP accounts, do NOT simply update your old POP Gmail settings on your Mac or iPhone! Start with a FRESH new account. I couldn't get either the iPhone or Mac to work until I started with a fresh account.
Also, I was unable to send mail from the iPhone using the smtp.gmail address, so I had changed the outgoing mail setting to use my regular ISP's smtp address. But, at some point (a few minutes later or a few hours, I don't know) when I checked the Gmail settings on the iPhone, it had magically changed itself to smtp.gmail, with the port number, and it has been working perfectly ever since! Maybe IMAP can atomatically correct this info? Not sure.
One more thing. Once you have Gmail IMAP working, then you MUST go here:
http://5thirtyone.com/archives/862
Follow these directions exactly. This is a necessary set of steps in order to make your iPhone and Mac sync correctly, so that trashed mail on the iPhone will go in the trash on your desktop Mac, etc. It's pretty freaky to check email on the iPhone, and then go to your Mac Mail a few minutes later, and see all the newly trashed (or saved/read) emails perfectly synched up!
A final note. Once this is all working and synching, remember that if you delete an email on your iPhone, it gets deleted on the desktop Mac Mail as well (and vice-versa)... which is exactly what you want to happen, but I find that I have to remember to keep the mail that I want to save on the iPhone's inbox until I get back to my desktop Mac. Otherwise, I have to manually remove it from the trash to save it!

How do you get Voice Memos off the iPhone and onto my Mac???

Is this yet another iPhone dead end??
I used the Voice Memo app that comes with the iPhone to record some rehearsals and now I want to move them to my Mac, edit them, make CDs, share online.
I can't find any way to get them off the iPhone, unless I click the "Share" button, which means I can email them. But, it won't let me email the longer ones. I don't know how large the files are, but it just won't do it. I don't see any other facility for moving these files to my Mac. What is up with that???? iTunes provides no access to these files.
Is there some proprietary utility for the Mac that will allow me to access these files and move them to my Mac??? It would be nice if the iPhone would show up as a mounted volume which I could then browse for files, but that would make too much sense and be contrary to the control freak nature of Apple and it's iPhones/iPod Touches. I would call it another lousy user experience, but it's just a user non-experience, a complete dead end.
Is there any way to get these Voice Memo files off of the iPhone besides emailing them??

Thank you for replying!
That kb article refers to the iPod Nano and not the iPhone nor the iPod Touch.
The Synchronizing section you pointed to does not work. I have a big bunch of voice memos on the iPhone. I tried the sync. Three of them were moved to the Mac, the rest were ignored. Four others were moved to iTunes Music/Music/Unknown with numbered names (i had given several of the voice memos names with the Custom label on the iPhone). For the synch I selected "Include voice memos."
After a sync, or several syncs, none of the other voice memos were moved to the Voice Memo playlist, nor are they in the iTunes Music library.
How do you get them to sync? I need to move them off of the iPhone and onto my Mac!

What is the best way to move Contacts onto the iPhone?

Hi Guys,
I currently have Nokia N82, usually when i get a new Nokia (since am a TOO loyal customer) i just take a backup from the previous one and add it to the new one when i get! i hate copying to/from SIM...
Now when i want to get the iPhone what is the best way to move the Contacts??
i use a Windows machine, STILL!

For the couple of iPhones I have access to, you've got three methods to get contacts onto the device aside from moving them onto the SIM; I have found that copying to and from SIMs can leave data fields not totally aligned.
(1) Via a cloud. One uses MobileMe (via iCal/Address Book entries) and the second uses an Exchange-based cloud. Both seem to work pretty well, although I do experience an occasional lag from time to time.
(2) Via a sync on a desktop. My preferred method. Connecting to iCal/Address Book>iTunes or Outlook 2007>iTunes work very well. My only issue was that Outlook didn't work as I'd expected the first time, just as with a couple of other phones in the past (it never did work with my Motorola Z9); to "fix" the issue, I simply refreshed Outlook's contacts and rebooted Outlook - I actually had to do the same thing with iCal to "blow out the pipes" and both sync conduits work fine now.
(3) Transfer Contacts to the iPhone via email using a vCard for each contact. I use version 3.0-compatible vCard files generated from Address Book or Entourage (Mac), Outlook or just about what my business contacts generate. Just about every platform has some unique data type, but I haven't received a vCard yet the iPhone can't handle via email.
Getting your Contacts out of the iPhone. Option (1) or (2) - that's it AFAIK. I hope this helps you out!

How can I get someone to answer the phone? I'm ready to give VERIZON my business. I sat on the phone for over 20 minutes only to be transferred to "Sales." I then sat on the phone for another 15 minutes!!!! I finally hung up.

How can I get someone to answer the phone? I'm ready to give VERIZON my business. I sat on the phone for over 20 minutes only to be transferred to "Sales." I then sat on the phone for another 15 minutes!!!! I finally hung up.

It takes an enormous amount of patience and time to get through to a qualified person.
My Samsung S5 was locked out and needed a factory reset. Including attempts to achieve this locally, it took over an hour before my problem was even addressed.
You may be interested in my journey to a very good technical support person.
First I called the local sales person who had given me his personal business card with the friendly advice to call me with any questions. No answer at about 8:30 am when the business was open. His voice mailbox was full.
Then I called the local store where I had purchased the phone. The person who answered the phone had learned all the proper stock phrases, but was not familiar with the issue, stated that there were no customers in the store, and I should go there in about an hour when there would be more staff. He suggested dialing *411 from my phone (which was locked). Then he gave me a number to call Verizon, which he had to look up, and it took a minute or so. The number was (removed). That is an internal number for employees and contractors and requires a code to access, obviously not designed for customers' use. He finally cut me off by stating that there were a number of customers in line waiting for his attention!
After researching all my papers I found 800-922-0204 on my bill. The automated message suggested a hold time of 5 minutes, it took 20 minutes for a Customer Service Representative to pick up, and then I was referred to technical assistance. The hold time was announced to take 5 minutes, after 12 minutes I finally was connected.
Fortunately I had my computer set up for Skype on a loudspeaker, and was able to do some other paperwork while waiting.
Persistence was rewarded by having the good fortune to be connected to a very experienced, qualified and patient technical support staff with the name of Thomas (removed). He solved my problem, answered my questions during the process of resetting the phone, and gave an example of courteous and kind customer service that I had never experienced before when dealing with any major internet company.

Hi Ragav
did you try to debug this? maybe something is missing in config of P&F?
Since you are on 605, the following note would be there in your system....use it to debug:

This will help you find the root cause.
