I have a Iphone 5C. Should I upgrade to a newer phone?

What do other people think of the 5s compared to the 5c iphone?

The iPhone 5S has a fingerprint reader for quicker access to your phone from the lock screen, a faster processor (64-bit), and an elegant aluminum and glass design. Those are a few advantages over the 5C.

I have an iphone 4, when I upgraded to ios 7.1.1 the application 'superlive pro' is not functioning well it is stucked and some times the device needs to be restarted

if there is a compatability between the app and newer versions of the ios then likely the developer if he/she knows about it will release an update fixing the issue
but of cause the developer has to know about it so maybe you should inform the developer about the issue and wait for a fix

HT1386 I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S). I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone. But not sure how to do that.

I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S). I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone. But not sure how to do that. When I open iTunes it has a button that say "Back Up iPhone", but I'm not sure what that does. When I go into the sync options it say I have another user account and asks me if I want to merge of replace. I'm assuming it's trying to tell me I have an older iTunes Library, but don't know that. Geez, maybe people over 60 shouldn't have iPhones, iTunes just bafles me.

Hello, my name is Karan Taneja and i have been a loyal Apple customer.
I have been using Apple since it introduced iphone 4 and have been upgrading/buying every new phone Apple introduces after that.
I was always happy and surprized to see Apple doing so good to its customers.
Unfortunately, i experienced some thing really unprofessional and different this time.
It begun suddenly one day when i tried to charge my phone, the phone was on silent mode and as usual the phone vibrated when i kept it for charge.
After a few seconds the phone vibrated twice or thrice again when i re-inserted the cable thinking it might be loose.
It continued to charge well when i left the room for 2 hours and finally when i returned i could see a damaged i phone 5
lying on the floor and the phone vibrating continuously and i figured out there was a fault with the cable and the
current wasnt flowing continuously due to which the phone continued to vibrate and fell off the shelf.
Next day i took the iphone to Apple service centre at Saket which was closed.
Thinking its August 15 and so the store might be closed i went back to home and waited for the next day but unfortunately could not turn up since
i had to go to work on odd timings.
I again went to the same service centre on 17th August 2013 and saw the service centre closed again when i tried to contact
the other service centre and was informed about Saket's service centre already been shut down.
There was no hoarding/ banner any kind of intimation for the customers.
Since 18th August was Sunday and i was occupied on 19th August i went to service centre at Ansal Plaza Khel Gaon Marg on
20th August 2013 to complaint about the Faulty Cable and the damaged caused to my iphone 5 due to the same.
I very well explained the same to one of the person at the receiving desk at the service centre who accepted the cable
but explained me that he doesnt have the authority to accept my iphone without permission from the technical support people
who will be able to help me in that case and gave me the toll free number.
i Tried to reach the toll free number and finally managed to get online with a technical support executives who too all my details and
summary of the problem i experienced and finally kept me on hold for almost 10 minutes ormore after which he said he said that my
case cannot be considered and while the discussion was on, the call was disconnected and i was left frustrated as i still was at the service centre
but finally i left with no hope from Apple .
I tried to reach again at the toll free number, and finally managed to talk to a well behaved person who assured me of considering my case and suggested
me to go back to the service centre and advice the the person at the recieving end there to get me connected to the technical support team when i reach so that i could
submit my phone but, since, it was already around 4:30 and the service centre was about to shut and due to traffic
conditions all around i thought of visiting the service centre next day.
On 21st August 2013, i went back to the service centre and spoke to the one of the store person who adviced the case to the manager Mr. Alok ( as i remember )
who was really rude to tell me that i will have to call the technical support team on my own and then he will connect and that its not his work and all that .
I finally connected to one of the senior technical support executives Mr.Mohamed Azharuddin K who understood my concern and spoke to the manager of the store to accept
my iphone.
My iphone was finally collected and i was assured i would get a call back next day from the service centre about the update.
It was now 22nd August 2013, no update was given,no call was received, i tried to call the service centre at 12:30, they were unaware about my case and knew only about the cable and said will call me
back very shortly.
I called back at 2:30, still no update, at 4:30 i called back again when i was told that my case cannot be considered and i can collect my phone.
Similar discussion was held with Mr.Mohamed Azharuddin K.
I knew by the time i will reach the service centre would again close.
He told me that my case cannot be considered since the cable was recieved in the dead condition and wasnt working at all unlike what i told him about the cable.
On 23th August 2013, i went back to the service centre and collected my phone. When i asked about my old cable and told them that it was working and i wanted the technician
to check it properly when i handed it over, they had no answer but to say its already shipped. I spoke to the manager who said that he never told any body that the cable
was received in dead condition and he only conveyed to other authorities that the cable had fault .
I finally dont know what to do and came back with the new cable.
I just visited my time, petrol and parking charges in getting the cable replaced.
If i calculated i have spent around 16 hours and 2000 worth of money in just getting the cable replaced and have a broken phone in hand.
More than a weeks torture.
Is that the way apple compensates for its fault ????????????????
I will make sure that i never buy any thing from Apple and advice all the people i know to not trust Apple blindly.

Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum. Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is. Apple is not here. It's users, like you.
If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.

I have OS x 10.5.8 on my Macbook. Should I upgrade to the new Mt. Lion OS?

I have OS x 10.5.8 on my MacBook. Should I upgrade to the new Mt. Lion?

Yes.
Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
             Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?

Hey there denise.ca,
I see that you have a question about one of the functions of USB syncing. To answer your question, yes, you can sync contacts from your computer to your iPhone using USB syncing and iTunes:

You can not do so. 4.2.1 is the end of the line for the 3G. You will have to access it using Safari or get a new phone.

itunes accounts are not the same as icloud accounts. It's okay to use the same ID for the itunes account on different devices owned by different users. That way you share purchased items. But for icloud, each user should have their own account if they want their own data, otherwise data is shared among all users.

I can receive emails, but I cannot send emails. This just started happening. I have an iPhone and I can send emails from my phone fine. It's just not working on my Macbook. Every time I try to send an email it goes straight to my outbox. Can anyone help?

Thank you for heading me in the right direction. I reset my Mail account for Outgoing Mail Server to outbound.att.net:(customer ID)@att.net (instead of smtp.att.yahoo.com, per Apple's online troubleshooting information). I'm not sure what "(Offline)" means when it appears at the end of my Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)?? In the Advanced box I clicked on "Use custom port: 465" and checked "Use Secure Sockets Layer." Authentication: Password; I have correct User Name and Password put in. After doing all this, when I try to send emails again today, they go directly to the Outbox and sit there.
What's curious is that my first sent email this morning did go out using the Outgoing Mail Server, smtp.att.yahoo.com: (customer ID)@att.net(Offline) but subsequent emails I tried to send with this server were rejected with the message: "Cannot send message using the server smtp.att.yahoo.com (etc.). The SMTP server doesn't support TLS(SSL) on port 587. Verify your account settings and try again." That's when I tried resetting my Outgoing Mail Server to outbound.att.net (etc.), as mentioned above, and was unsuccessful in sending out any further emails. I guess my next step is to contact my email service provider, AT&T, and see if they can help me. Thanks, again, for taking the time to respond and for giving me your input! Much appreciated!

I have an iPhone 3G and when I downloaded the new operating system, a bunch of the apps on my phone disappeared. How do I get them back on my phone's screen?

Hi Everyone,
When I downloaded the new iPhone iOS update, I lost most of the apps from my iphone screen. How do I add them back to my iPhone display? I plan to upgrade to the newer phone later this year.
Thank you!

If you are referring the the native apps that come with the phone they cant be deleted. go to settings/general/reset then reset home screen layout. If the apps are not the native apps sometimes they are just moved along a screen or so. Swipe over the screen and see if you can find them

I have an iPhone 3gs and will be getting a new iPhone 4s. Once I have updated my existing 3gs with iCloud and backed up to my computer, will I be able to transfer my existing data to my new 4s using iCloud or will I need to do this from my iMac.

The Apple genius at the Apple store told me this would work. It failed. Basically, updating your iPhone 3GS to iOS5 wipes your 3GS of its data so you can't really do this. Some data worked. Music, photos etc didn't work at all.
I suggest avoiding iCloud completely for a few weeks until Apple gets it working.
