I would like to know If suppose my iphone is lost will the other guy can use it by changing the IME Number, will it be tracable if he does that

Hi
Any can help me out for my question

The only way to locate any lost iPhone is through Apple's Find My Phone. However, Find My Phone must be turned on/activated, & your phone must have Internet access. If someone finds your phone, and your phone was passcode protected, all the person has to do is force the phone into recovery mode & restore it as a new device. Doing this will prevent your phone from being located. If you report the loss to your carrier, and your carrier offers blacklisting, the phone will not be able to be activated, for use, on that carrier's network. If your carrier does not offer blacklisting, your phone will be able to be activated for use.

    You can't.
    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  This requires action before the device is lost/stolen.  If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • I would like to know if you have to back up a macbook hard drive, can I use a external hard drive that has been previously used to back up several pc 's, or is it best to have a separate external drive for the Mac?

    I would like to know if you have to back up a macbook hard drive, can I use a external hard drive that has been previously used to back up several pc 's, or is it best to have a separate external drive for the Mac?

    In the Mac side of things, backups usually come in two flavors: clones or incrementals.
    A bootable clone is a bit-for-bit copy of all essential files in the startup volume. If using the Lions, clones can be made using CarbonCopyCloner or just plain old Disk Utility. These backups represent the safest protection of your info, but take the longest to do. Recovery is an inverse process: you copy the clone back into the internal drive.
    Incremental backups start with a complete backup of the startup volume and only copy whatever changed from the previous run. OS X includes the fully integrated Time Machine backup utility to do this. It is extremely easy to do and takes the least amount of time. Recovery is another matter altogether since you have to start with a freshly installed instance of the OS and have to apply all intervening backups to bring the result to the latest saved version.
    As for where the backup takes place, the recommended media is an external dedicated drive or drives connected via the fastest interface available on your Mac: Thunderbolt, USB3, Firewire, or USB2. Network-based backups, wired or wireless, are attractive but may not offer the same performance and hence take longer. Also important to note that the entire drive need not be completely dedicated to a single backup. The Mac's EFI firmware infrastructure allows for an unlimited number of partitions on a hard drive and each can be used for either type of backups.
    Holler if you need specifics on how to do each. This was just an executive summary.

    Try a different camera app.  Camera Plus is a good one and there are many others.

  • I would like to know which app/software in MAC gives us the same feature that is provided by System Restore in Windows, and how does that work

    I would like to know which app/software in MAC gives us the same feature that is provided by System Restore in Windows, and how does that work.

    Time Machine is one such program, although it is a recursive backup program which offers limited archive capability, based on the capacity of the backup destination, and it requires you set it up before you start editing your files.   Some programs are also Versions aware, which offers a kind of restore capability by file.  Again needs to be setup before you start editing.
    Just a for-your-info:
    Mac is not an acronym, it is a nickname for Macintosh.

    Hey,
    I think you will find that you have to have a debit/credit card stored on yur account regardless of whether your have iTunes Credit or want to purchase a free App. I don't know why, I assume its for ID verification or is part of the terms and conditions. I occasionally have to re-verify my credit card info even when just trying to run Update on one of my Apps or like I said downloading a free App.
    If you need further clarification all you can do is contact iTunes Support:

    Hope this helps. Andrew

  • I have a mac pro 1,1. I would like to know if its possible for me to upgrade the parts to where i can install osx mountain lion, or osx mavericks?

    I have a mac pro 1,1. I would like to know if its possible for me to upgrade the parts to where i can install osx mountain lion, or osx mavericks? I am currently adding more ram so it will have 32gb of ram, i have 2 250gb HDD but adding a 250gb SSD , and have a ATI Radeon HD 4870 512mb that i will most likely upgrade to an ATi Radeon HD 5570 1gb.

    The SSD will boot fast, but the real change is launching 10 programs in 10 seconds and being able to use them. (20 seconds for a few big suites).
    I would not add or upgrade to 32GB RAM. You can get 8 x 2GB for $100 on Amazon.
    Those 250GB HDD are "old" and slow and overdue to be replaced, reformat and use t o backup the system.
    Samsung 250GB SSD is down to $150 or so on Amazon also.
    The 5770 is gone, hard to find, EOL and over charged for when you do find one.
    you could look into how to use a PC 6870 or others.
    Or, you could hold out and wait for a refresh of Mac-Mini which can be just as fast or faster and run Mavericks.

    HI, its my first time buying apple product from online, I'm from Sarawak, Malaysia, i would like to know what type of post/delivery service will be used to deliver the product i ordered to my house address.

    iPhones, iPads, iPods are dispatched from China.  Apple accessories are dispatched from Singapore.  The carrier is FedEx.
    Online purchases could be delivered to office addresses or home addresses.  Track your item through the email sent by Apple.  If necessary,  you could change the delivery address to your office one.

  • HT1807 I am travelling to Ireland and would like to know what type of power converter I will need in order to charge my Iphone 4S

    I am travelling to Ireland and would like to know what typw of power converter I will need in order to charge my IPhone 4S.

    The iPhone charger is capable of using any voltage from 100 to 240v.  So you won't need a converter.  All you will need is a plug adapter like this:  http://www.adaptelec.com/wa7-travel-plug-adapter-for-england-ireland-etc-type-g- bs-1363-p-3.html

  • HT2506 I use Preview to edit photos, and would like to know if there are any Preview updates in the works. I find there is a problem with Preview crashing, or taking a very long time to "catch up" (spinning beachball of death) while I'm editing.

    I use Preview to edit photos, and would like to know if there are any updates to this program in the works. It seems Apple is constantly updating its software, except for Preview. I find it crashes all too often, and also takes forever to "catch up" with me (as in spinning beachball of death) when I'm editing a lrge amount of photos. Yes, I know I should be using Photoshop or somesuch, but it's just too **** confusing, and I don't have the time to figure it out. Thanks!!

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.
