I noticed after I did the 5.1 update to my iPhone 4S it now says I'm on the 4G network... will this upgrade put all iPhones on the 4G network?

Depending on what source you read there are no 4G networks anywhere in the world (the definition is 100 Mbps or better). However, that doesn't stop carriers from calling somewhat more advanced networks from claiming they are "4G". Thus, Verizon calls their LTE network 4G. At 7-15 Mbps it's certainly better than their lame EVDO, but it isn't true 4G. AT&T calls their HSPA+ 4G, and I have seen up to 7 Mbps on my 4S, which makes it faster than their 1.5-2Mbps HSDPA. But it isn't LTE (which AT&T is deploying also and isn't compatible with the iPhone). So the short answer is that it's just market positioning.

    Unfortunately yes, though technology would never move on if it kept to older standards and did not strive to do more.
    The app store always gives you the option to use a previous version of the app IF it is available for your device.
    Sorry but you are stuck without new hardware.

    The installer should have gone into your Apple Software Update folder:

    Perhaps the PLUGIN Update feature needs to be engaged to assure that both Java and Shockwave editions are current. It requires 'Help' > 'Firefox Help' > where the lower right side displays a link for Plug-In Update...

    Apple changed MobileMe to iCloud and then restricted iCloud to 10.7 users only unfortunately
    If your machine is a 64 bit processor Intel Mac you can upgrade to 10.7 for $29, however a lot of your 10.5/10.6/Rosetta based software could cease to function, especially third party hardware drivers for printers, fax machines, all-in-ones, scanners etc.
    http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Also depending how old the machine is, if it can accept 4GB of RAM (preferred), older video card, may not run 10.7 very well or stable.
    My advice is to keep at 10.6.8, get a web based email service that's plaform/hardware neutral, forward your iPhone emails there. Gmail/Yahoo Mail for instance.
    When your ready for new hardware and all new software, then buy a new machine.
    If your going to go to 10.7 on your present hardware, I advise you clone 10.6.8 to a external drive first, that way you can c boot off the 10.6 disk erase the drive completely (necessary to remove hidden Lion Recovery Partition) and option boot off the 10.6.8 clone and reverse clone.

    A good read. Have you done anything at all to resolve your problem. Reset? Restore?
    By the way - "your products"... nobody here produced the iPhone, we are all just users. Apple is not here.

  • I recently did the 5.3 update to my Apple TV and now it is running sluggish and things keep freezing and then pictures are loading on top of each other. Then I did a hard reset today and now the WWDC app is gone. Anyone else having these issues?

    I have been having problems with my atv 3 not transmitting/receiving 5.1 surround. Whether I stream from my computer or watch movies, I am getting no 5.1 audio. The atv won't even show the option for surround. I tried to restore and reset the device but it didn't help.
    I haven't had any problems with missing apps or freezing or anything similar to what you are experiencing. This update has many bugs. Other threads have reported even more problems. Hopefully I can go back to the previous update.

  • HT4859 when you go to do this it say that your iPod or whichever device will no longer be backed up to the computer it is currently backed up to, what exactly does that mean? Will i not be able to sync my iPod from that computer?

    when you go to do this it say that your iPod or whichever device will no longer be backed up to the computer it is currently backed up to, what exactly does that mean? Will i not be able to sync my iPod from that computer? Please help me and answer either or both question detailed thanks

    Normally when you sync your device it is automatically backed up to your computer as the first step in the sync process.  When you choose to start backing up your device to iCloud, iTunes stops automatically backing it up on your computer when you sync.  That's what the message is telling your; that you are now backing up to iCloud and not to your computer each time you sync.  You can still manually back up to your computer any time you want by going to the Summary tab and clicking on Back Up Now under Manually Back Up and Restore.
    You can still sync your device as you did before, it just will no longer back up automatically when you do.

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

If I ignore this and drag a file onto the sceneline, I get the "where is the file " message" and when click on the file it is looking for I get the message "This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed".

    Although we are continents apart - Australia (Perth) vs North America (US), we will not let time zones interfere with getting your Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 working.
    1. The usual Premiere Elements 8 drill.
    a. Are the automatic features of Background Rendering and AutoAnalzyer turned Off?
    For Background Rendering, see Premiere Elements workspace Edit Menu/Preferences/General. For AutoAnalzyer, see Elements Organizer workspace Edit Menu/Preferences/AutoAnalyzer Options.
    b. Are you running the program from the 8.0.1 Update? If not, see Help Menu/Update?
    c. Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1?
    Apple - QuickTime - Download
    2. The usual computer drill....for your Windows XP 32 bit (SP3, I presume)
    a. Is computer opitimized, defragmented, etc.
    CCleaner - PC Optimization and Cleaning - Free Download
    b. Are you running your computer from a User Account with Administrative Privileges? That is important for Premiere Elements 8 as well as for its
    required QuickTime. In addition, right click the computer desktop icon for Premiere Elements 8 and select and apply Run As Administrator.
    3. Project Specifics
    For now, import your source media into the project from the computer hard drive using the project's Get Media/Files and Folders. Leave the Elements Organizer and Albums out of the equation for now. We will circle back to it soon after we decide everything else is working as it should be.
    a. You need to set a project preset. And, that project preset should match the properties of your source media. So important to know properties of source media.
    b. When you import your source media into a project you will get a red line over its content if the project preset is not a match - either because you set the wrong one or the program does not have a match for your particular video. That red line means that you are not seeing the best possible preview of what is being played back in the Edit area monitor. To get the best possible preview, you hit the Enter key of the computer main keyboard to get a rendered Timeline (red line goes from red to green after this type of rendering). That green line over your rendered Timeline indicates that you are now getting the best possible preview. This is solely a preview thing. Longer story, but I will leave it at that for now.
    c. Check Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disks to assure that those Scratch Disks are being saved to a computer hard drive location with enough free space to accept them. Make sure that you do not have pile ups of previews files, conformed audio files, and conformed video files.
    See Local Disk C\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\Adobe\Premiere Elements\9.0
    Never move, delete, or rename source files after they have been imported into a project which has been saved/closed. Otherwise, nasty media disconnect problems. You have only copies of media in Premiere Elements. The originals are on the hard drive, and the project must trace back to the originals where they were at import.
    Based on the above, try to start a new project. But, let me know ahead of time what you will be importing into the project. I am looking for
    Video
    video compression
    audio compression
    frame size
    frame rate
    interlaced or progressive
    pixel aspect ratio
    If you do not know, we could try to get that type of information from knowing the brand/model/settings for the camera that recorded the video.
    Photos
    Pixel dimensions and how many photos?
    Lots and lots of details, but eventually they all mellow into one workflow that you can customize for your projects.
    Please do not hesitate to ask questions or to ask for clarification. We can go at whatever pace you feel comfortable with.

    My iphone 6 is only getting 1x service in my office.  Could this have something to do with the VOLTE?

        wc_e,
    Let's look further into this! No, that shouldn't be the case. Does service improve outside your office? Are you a new customer? If not, did your previous phone experience the same issue? Try resetting network settings in Settings>General>Reset test and share. Thank you.

    Hi
    A little information will be of a great help, witch iPhone did you upgrade, memory , and version of software ( iOS 8.x.x )?
    Try restarting you iPhone and make sure you have a god internet connection , get as close to your wifi router (1-3 meter / 2-9 feet ) as possible. Don't use restore to factory  settings before you tried other options .  And most imported du you have an iCloud backup.
