As stated, Apple does not unlock phones. If you are using Orange in the UK, they do offer unlocking. See this page for information: http://help.orange.co.uk/orangeuk/support/personal/474187

I keep getting a Networking Error: when i run Software update. i have 10.5.8 and want to upgrade to at least 10.6 or later. i know the network is working perfectly.
Snow Leopard OS 10.6 is not available via Software Update, it is paid upgrade.
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

I have used Firefox on my computer for several years. Today, after upgrading to the new version, I was not able to open Firefox. I have tried several times uninstalling and re-downloading Firefox. It still will not open! Is the new version not compatible with Windows Vista?
I hope that link points to mozilla.com or mozilla.org
You will have to close firefox.exe with the Windows Task Manager from the "Processes" tab of the WTM since you don't have a widow to close.
The best way to close Firefox is through File > Exit, for those who stuck with the "Firefox" button click on the Firefox button then Exit. It is not perfect but it is a lot better than just closing the window with the "X" in the upper right corner -

Traveling abroad and want to use skype on my mobil...
I will be traveling abroad to Costa Rica and Nicaragua and taking my mobile phone with me. I will be able to use my phone to connect to the internet whenever wi-fi is available. I will not be able to use my phone for regular calling. So, I want to know if I can make calls through skype using my phone as long as I am connected to the internet through wi-fi? My calls will be to regular landlines or mobiles, not to skype numbers. I will therefore add skype credit once I know that I will be able to call.
Thank youI can understand how this might happen but I think you posted in the wrong forum...if you're planning on using free wifi sites. Skype wi-fi is to pay for service in hotspots where wifi isn't free. See this link for an explanation:
http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/features/allfeatures/skype-wifi/
In any case, yes, if you have wifi service, free or paid, Skype on your phone, and credits available, you can call landlines or mobiles with Skype. The rate for the calls will depend on the country you're callling. You can see the rates here:

I changed my Apple ID and password last week. Today I cannot get into my computer with the new password..help!
Your Apple id password is not necessarily the same as your log-in password.
The former is what you use to log-in to Apple services and sites. The latter is what you use to login to your computer. That does not change when you change your Apple ID password. Try the original computer login password. -
Im traveling abroad and while I have refused the IOS7 upgrade my iPad is now lock. The display only reflecting iTunes and the USB cable images. Now I can not access my photos and or my email. Anyway I can reset without connecting to my computer?

No. Not without access to a computer running iTunes. You do want to use your own computer so that you can restore from your backup and sync your own content back from iTunes. -
I want to buy iPhones (4S and 5) and want to buy them in US $. But want Apple to ship them to Pakistan. I will pay the charges of shipment once told. I want to buy the iPhones in Contracts. I'll unlock them myself no problem. Is that possible? Apple ans?
No, you can't do what you want. Apple will only ship a US iPhone to a verified billing/shipping address in the US.

I live in the US and want to buy a MacBook Air with norwegian keyboard in the Apple Store. Is that possible?
In earlier years you can go th an Apple Store, buy a Macbook Pro and ask for a replacement to a other type of keyboard. I do this 2-3 times in the last years for german keyboards. If you done this on the same day you bought the macbook, the replacement happened without charge anything. It was a great service.
Yesterday i go back to the same store like before and both - the sales representative and the guys an the GeniusBar told me - that this is not offered by Apple anymore. Because the US Apple Online Store do not offer other Keyboards the US-based keyboards and the German Apple Online Store do not deliver to other countries the final conglusion from the Apple Stuff was:
Flight to germany, but it over their.
I see here in the Support community a lot of questions about norwegian, german and other kind of keyboards they want to buy in the US. Their is obviously a need for this. And from the logistic standpoint, it should be easy for Apple to offer that in the Online Stores itself.
For me the conglusaion is: I stay with my old Macbook Pro and hope i need no replacement within the next years. To order it in germany, ship it to a friend, pay taxes twice (in germany and vur customers) plus shipment, make it to expensive (bottonline: 600-800$ more than buy it in the US) make no sense to me. -
I have a ipod touch but want to buy a ipod shuffel. can i sync my music from the touch to the shuffel and how? but if i cant how do i buy music from itunes on the shuffel?
You can't go directly from the Touch to the Shuffle, but if you can get the music into your itunes library on your computer, you'll be able to sync that music to the Shuffle no problem. Follow the steps in this article to transfer any music you've purchased on your iPod into the computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848

I currently run the Design and Web Premium CS6 on a first generation MacBook Air and want to buy a new MacBook Pro. How do I know whether I can install my Adobe programs onto the new computer? Because I know there is some kind of limit.
Also, I had to install the software twice on my same computer before because I had to reboot the computer. I don't know if this affects the limit.You are allowed to have two activated installations so there should not be a problem having working installations on the two machines. If by chance you have somehow tied up two activations for the one machine you can have Adobe support help resolve that thru chat.

I have a school ipad with iCloud using a different ID (my school email address) . I am leaving and want to buy my own ipad and transfer all my data and docs to my personal iCloud account but don't know how to do this without deleting all data and photos?
Heya Katie!!
So, the article you have there, HT4895, is pretty good. Just look at the FAQ section of it.
But basically, you will want to create a backup on your computer through iTunes...Just plug your current iPad into it and make sure your iPad and iTunes are logged in with the same Apple ID. At that point, just create a backup.
When you get your new iPad, and before you plug it in or set it up, follow the directions in this link to change your Apple ID. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621?viewlocale=en_US
Once you have that done, plug your new iPad into your computer to sync up with iTunes. Follow the directions for Restore from Backup and it should bring all that info back to your new iPad.
And changing your Apple ID email info will allow you to have your own!!! This should solve all your issues and GL!!! -
I often travel abroad and my host has changed Internet provider. Then my service was interrupted and I can't update iTunes. Any tips to stop the error messages?
Wow! At least on Apple TV, problem solved. Apple: what's not to love? Please give me credit if you use it in marketing campaigns... ;-)
