If I can't do this my Iphone is useless!

Hi everyone,
Just bought an Iphone 4. Plugged it into my mac but it appears that I need a new version of itunes to get apps and what not (i might be wrong) - but I can't install itunes 10 because my operating system isn't powerful enough. Suggestions please clever people x

From the box the iphone came in and Apple's website:
"Mac system requirements
Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
iTunes 9.2 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
iTunes Store account
Internet access"

Yeah - I tried that, several times; each time I get "iTunes is restoring the software on this iPhone" and after about 30 minutes the screen on the phone lights up again with the same screen I had before. After that ... nothing.

Have a wrong email address which keeps popping up as a suggestion rather than the correct one which is in my contacts. How can I delete this? iPhone doesn't allow me to get to it to delete it like I can in Outlook.

I'm very glad that helped!
It's good you looked in the Manual first. Certainly not everyone does that.
With Apple products, I've found that not everything is completely documented, but sometimes if you try something that seems like it should work, it actually does work.
That's how I personally learned about this feature.
Enjoy your Apple gear!

HT3529 I receive double messages when someone sends me a message and my messages are being delivered twice. Why is this happening and how can I correct this? Iphone messages

My text messages are coming in double on my iphone as well as my outgoing messages. How can I correct this?

Hi,
In the Messages > Preferences > General Section is a Line about When I quit, set my Status to Off line.
If you tick this it should stop all Off line Messages from any source from starting up Messages.
Basically it comes from iChat and AIM and Jabber Logins which in AIM's case and some Jabber server can do Off Line IMs.
This means if some Messages whilst you are Off line the server will store the Messages until you are on Line.
However IMAgent in Lion and Mountain Lion and iChatAgent in earlier versions run in the background all the time from Mac Start up.
It is the support app that "Listens" when you have not started the App.
It will launch the app when an Off Line IM comes in.
I have found that iMessages will also launch the Messages app if this setting is not set.
(realistically you are never Off Line with iMessages)
It can help if another device is receiving the iMessages. This way Sync versions of the iMessages don't also wake up the app.

I am planning to purchase an iphone pay as you go and would like to know if I can use the blackberry sim in the iphone. If so would this restrict any features?

Your iPhone will include a new SIM card that must be activated with O2 even with a pay-as-you-go plan. The SIM card is "married" the iPhone's IMEI number as part of the activation process.
Once activated, you should be able to use your iPhone's SIM card with your Blackberry, but you can't do this in reverse. Using an activated SIM card from another phone with a carrier locked iPhone, and the iPhone is sold in the UK as carrier locked with O2 only.

I have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?

i have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?

i had one for a long time, then when i got the ipad i didn't realize they would all still work under one so i set up the second one on that
then when i got the new iphone i put in the info for the first and main one from my mac pro and it would not work at all, and i knew it was right, then it asked me to create a new one or i couldnt finish the setup
hence why i have 3 now
hard to believe you cannot combine into one
oh well, i will just make them all accessible for all 3
thanks

You copy them from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
The iphone is not a backup/storage device.

When you look at your iPhone, are you looking in the Music app or in the iTunes app? Be sure you are looking in the Music app, and look in the Songs category. If your songs are not here, you may want to try syncing your information again through iTunes. To do this, uncheck "Sync Music" and then click apply or sync in the bottom right corner of iTunes, and then recheck "Sync Music" and then click apply or sync again.
I hope this helps!

You must contact iTunes support to get the problem resolved.
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
If there is a problem with your account or payment info, you cannot
download anything (including free apps or updates) until the matter
is resolved.
In countries where the iTunes Store only sells apps, the accepted payment methods are Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Other payment types such as gift cards, store credit, monthly allowances, ClickandBuy, and PayPal are not accepted. Depending on your App Store country, prices may be listed in your local currency, US Dollars, or Euros. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552

I think the McAfee suite will do the trick when I pay them a one-time fee of $69 or $179 for a year for unlimited support.
Your call of course but IMO a waste of money. Please read this first:
There are many forms of ‘Malware’ that can affect a computer system, of which ‘a virus’ is but one type, ‘trojans’ another. Using the strict definition of a computer virus, no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions. The same is not true of other forms of malware, such as Trojans. Whilst it is a fairly safe bet that your Mac has NOT been infected by a virus, it may have another security-related problem, but more likely a technical problem unrelated to any malware threat.

Hi Grandmaz5,
If you are having issues connecting to Facebook on your iPad, and you have already troubleshot the Facebook app itself, you may want to check the built-in iOS settings for Facebook; you may find the following article helpful:

HT1871 Hello i have one IPhone 4S and I use 3G net in my mobile sometime I have problem with temperature in my phone at the SIM card or battery how can I fix this problem. By update or version of 6.1.3

Hello i have one IPhone 4S and I use 3G net in my mobile sometime I have problem with temperature in my phone at the SIM card or battery how can I fix this problem. By update or version of 6.1.3

Could it be because the SIM card got damaged while I cut it to fit the IPhone?
Very likely. Hard to believe the carrier in Mexico doesn't have a micro-SIM card available.
Or somehow the Chinese carrier found out and locked it?
No, which is not possible.
What can I do? Get a new SIM and see if it works again?
Get a micro-SIM from the carrier in Mexico that you don't have to manually cut down. If that carrier doesn't provide one, switch to another carrier that is not so low-budget.

Follow the steps in this article to restore from iTunes back up:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Since you say you cant see the back up in iTunes you should be able to see it when following the last step where it says for iTunes 10.7 or earlier. Dont worry as this step also works for iTunes 11.

If I can't do this my Iphone is useless!
