If U got your iPhone via direct fulfillment AT&T & it shipped from FT Worth

I got my phone via direct fulfillment from a local AT & T store. It shipped from Ft. Worth, TX
When Fed Ex delivered, I was surprised to hear how much shifting was going on inside the box and once I opened the box it was obvious why.
Although I was charged $15 for shipping, the packer placed only 1 air bubble packet ON TOP of the phone. ZERO CUSHIONING BELOW THE PHONE or on either side of it, and the box measures a good 4" wider all around than the phone box.
What has been your experience with packaging if you got the iPhone via same method? Did your phone work ok?
8GB   Windows XP  

From what i recall, the iPhone is the Top component in the box when you first open it. So placing a bubble mailer cushion on top makes the most sense. Apple i'm sure knows that and is shipping them out or instructing the warehouses to package them/ship them as instructed. It should be fine.

    Try restoring the backup again.  Your apps and other purchased media should have been restored from your backup if they were on your old phone when you backed it up.

    SMS is a carrier feature. Start by contacting your carrier and making sure your account is properly configured. Even if it was before, sometimes changing phones causes glitches.

    You should be importing all pics taken with your iphone to your computer as you would with any digital camera.  Have you failed to do this?

  • Just got an iPhone 5S, I am currently restoring my backup from my iCloud account (iPhone 4S) and I noticed that touch ID Is not in my settings menu, it only says "passcode" instead of "touch id

    Just got an iPhone 5S, I am currently restoring my backup from my iCloud account (iPhone 4S) and I noticed that touch ID Is not in my settings menu, it only says "passcode" instead of "touch id & passcode". HELPPPPPPP

    Thank you.  That does appear to be the Sprint iPhone 5S in silver per:
    http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/iphone/specs/apple-iphone-5s-a1453-cdma-sp rint-kddi-softbank-specs.html
    So if you still have your iPhone 4S backup in order and ready to use, you might try:
    Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings
    ... and then start the iPhone 5S setup once again.
    It could be that the original seller did not set up the iPhone quite right.

    Will Apple stores in Germany replace your iPhone if there is internal hard drive problems from a phone from the US. I am studying abroad and won't be home until December

    You can try, but the iPhone warranty terms state that Apple "may" restrict warranty/service to country of original purchase...key word here is "may".
    Good luck.

  • Is anyone else experiencing trouble with removing songs off your iPhone via iTunes?

    iTunes 11 is so difficult to work! I can't even access the option to remove songs off my iPhone whilst it's connected to iTunes. Not sure if there's a super complicated way to do it but it's so unconvenient which I really hate. Any solutions? Seeing as I can't contact Apple through email I'm asking the community as they seem to know more about iTunes than the actual company does.
    Thanks in advance, guys..

    Hello Kizzrawr,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to the Apple Support Communities.
    I understand you are having issues syncing your iPhone 5 with iTunes 11, specifically trying to remove songs. I can definitely help, however the answer is going to be based on how you have configured you iPhone to sync.
    First, you may want to enable the sidebar to bring back the familiarity of past iTunes versions:
    iTunes 11: Frequently used features
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5649
    Afterwards, your device should be displayed if connected:
    We'll want to click on it, and choose the Music tab at the top. If sync music is checked, which option do we have selected? "Entire Library" or "Selected playlists, artists…" - the latter of which may be best for your needs.
    Otherwise, you can always manually manage the music on your iPhone. The following resource may provide more information on how to do so:

  • Just got an iphone 5s, I'm trying to transfer info from old phone but it's for a password to unlock iphone backup, I;ve never had a password for this before. How do I get the password?

    Hi,
    I've just bought an Iphone 5s, I'm trying to sync it to transfer all my info from my iphone 4 but when I click on continue to restore from this back up, it's asking for a password. I didn't have a password for the previous phone. Can anyone help?

    If the backup you're trying to restore from is encrypted, & you don't know the encrypted passcode, the backup will be unusable & you will not be able to recover any data from it. Encrypting an iPhone backup is not done automatically. You, or someone, had to elect to encrypt it to begin with, and no, there is no default passcode.
    Did you have an Exchange account on your iPhone 4? It is common for Corp. Exchange accounts to require an iPhone backup be encrypted. If you did, you might try your Exchange password.

  • Just got an iphone 5. My music didn't download from my computer. Everything else did. Why?

    I did a restore from my computer for the new iphone 5. It gave me everything but my emails & my music.  How can I get these?

    In order to install iTunes 7, you need OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard, or newer. You can call the online Apple store, which in the US is at 800-MY-APPLE and order it.
    If you want to upgrade to Lion or Mountain Lion, that would be the next step, however, you don't have to in order to use iTunes 7 and your iPhone 5.

  • Iphone Exchange not direct?? Three day shipping from Apple?

    I returned my iphone do to several annoying stuck pixels. Instead of a direct exchange at the Apple Store they took the phone and gave me my SIM card to use with an older phone. They told me they would have apple send me a new one in the mail. I was told to keep my box and it's contents and that I would be receiving a new phone in the mail. Has anyone gone through this 3 day shipping exchange process with an apple store? Am I going to get a refurb and is it going to come in one piece? I asked about that and they assured me it would be new. So Im just curious if anyone has had a similar experience and what to expect? Thanks

    I had brought my iPhone in to the Apple store due to a loss of audio. They got it to work in the store. They told me that since they also saw the problem, I could send it in for a repair. I did and paid the 29.00 for the loaner phone. This was Monday after noon. This after noon I get a Fed exed package. This had a new phone in it and a letter stating they could not fix the old one, so they sent me a new one. Was it refurbished? I don't know. It looks, acts and feels like a new one and that's good enough for me.

  • I just got my iphone 4s and i went to sync it from my ipod and it froze with a black screen, with the apple in the middle, and what looks like a loading bar under it

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
