Iphone 4 headset. MUST READ.

_On the US version of the Apple website, on the tech specs section about the iphone 4, it states that you get in the box:_
_In the box_
__iPhone 4__
*Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic*
__Dock Connector to USB Cable__
__USB Power Adapter__
_Documentation_
_(Link: http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html)_
_But on the United Kingdom website it says:_
_In the box_
_iPhone 4_
*_Stereo Headset with mic_*
_Dock Connector to USB Cable_
_USB Power Adapter_
Documentation
(Link: http://www.apple.com/uk/iphone/specs.html)
My question is that do buyers in united kingdom only get headphones with mic whilst american buyers get a remote headphone? why is that? i would prefer a remote headphone.

They make one with just a mic and a call button which you can control music from. and also another one with a + and - sign for volume keys.
I am told that the former are not being made anymore. They were for the original iPhone, iPhone 3G and original iPod touch only. Anything since uses the remote with volume buttons. The new remote works on those models too, with exception of the volume buttons.

  • IPhone Bluetooth Headset - after five months in the backyard

    About five months ago I lost my iPhone Bluetooth headset. This headset is so small and slippery that I'd almost lost it several times. This time I searched everywhere, but no luck. Well, this week we were dog-sitting for friends, and this dog loves to fetch. I left her outside when I went to work, and when I came home I walked into the backyard and looked down at a small black object just beyond the patio. I recognized my headset right away -- she must have found it in the yard or garden. After I cleaned off the dirt, it looked like new. I let it air out overnight and then charged it up. Despite five months of sprinklers, rain, and dirt, it works like new.
    I've dropped my iPhone enough to know how tough it is, but ounce for ounce, this headset is even tougher.

    Shelly,
    The new bluetooth headset from Apple will not play music at all. Mono bluetooth headsets aren't designed for said purpose. The format for doing so is called A2DP and it is currently not available on the iPhone. But there is a good chance that this might be remedied in a future software update.
    Hope that helps!!!

  • Iphone 5 headset not working

    Hello,
    I am having some trouble with using headsets with an iPhone 5.  As of about one week ago, the inline controls no longer function. For any of three different headsets, I can hear just fine, but the inline controls do not function: volume up down, pause, etc. I tried each headset (two third party and one Apple) with an iPad 3 and all work just fine. This is a new (Verizon) iPhone 5; there is no obvious debris or damage to the unit itself.  I have made certain the plug is firmly placed in the socket.  I have reset the phone (although admittedly not reset all settings or did a full wipe) and also fiddled with the volume limiter and other music settings without success.
    Other than replacing the phone, any assistance would be appreciated.
    Thank you.

    i have a iphone 5 same problem. i can connect 1 time then the next i have to go to setting and say forget this bluetooth device then put the bluetooth device back into discoverable mode then go back to the iphone and search and pair. I have to repeat this everytime i want to connect to this device. Then about 20 percent of the time i have to repeat this to stay connected. i am use to it by now, but with my other apple and other device i don't have any issues. only on the iphone 5.
    fun fun.

  • 3GS doesn't fit into iPhone Bluetooth Headset cradle?

    Just got my first iPhone, the 3GS. However, I already own the iPhone Bluetooth headset, which comes with a cradle that it supposed to accommodate the bluetooth and the iPhone. Since the new 3GS supposedly has the same dimensions as previous phones, it should fit, right?
    I tried putting the 3GS into the cradle and the latter was a tiny bit too small. The phone almost fit in the port but didn't, and I didn't want to force it. Anyone know if it's supposed to fit?

    It is not supposed to fit, and murray65 is correct - Apple never made a dual dock for the iPhone 3G, and in fact, early this year they discontinued the Apple Bluetooth Headset. You can either just use the travel cable to charge both devices, or you can use a Dremel (or carton knife, etc.) to widen the opening in the dock for the iPhone to accommodate the slightly larger and more rounded iPhone 3GS. See the last few posts in this thread for some links to pics of the process.

  • Import/Export SMS to/from iPhone have be must in Itunes

    Import/Export SMS to/from iPhone have be must in Itunes

    I have exactly the same problem as David Ting. I just bought a brand new iPhone 4 and just want to do the same thing that I did when moved from Symbian to Windows Mobile and from Windows Mobile to Android: import my old SMS messages and call history to my new device.
    It's a _complete nonsense_ to be incapable of doing a so simple thing in iOS.
    I'm really shocked with this impossibility. I'm starting to think that I just did a very wrong move choosing Apple.

    Siri is a feature of the iPhone 4S. 
    If you have a 4S, it is already installed.

  • Iphone bluetooth headset stops bluetooth keyboard from connecting

    has anyone else had a problem using an iphone bluetooth headset in close proximity to an bluetooth keyboard? If i wake up or boot up my macbook pro when my headset is switched on and close by, the keyboard will not connect to the mac! any ideas anyone please?

    Hi.
    I have found that having my WiFi on at the same time I try to pair with my Plantronics 925 prevents me from hooking up. If you have WiFi you may want to turn it off why you pair. Once paired you can then turn your WiFi back on with no problems.

    Hello Joolader. Posted below is an Article that seems based on what it is your doing. I have also posted a couple other articles along with Damon's, As well as some additional troubleshooting steps.
    iPhone and iPhone Bluetooth Headset: About auto-pairing http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305665
    iPhone Bluetooth Headset troubleshooting http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305777
    How to pair iPhone Bluetooth Headset http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305664
    Additional Troubleshooting.
    1. Turn iPhone off then back on. Simply hold down the Sleep/Wake button and slide to power off, When the screen turns dark. Press the Sleep/Wake Button for 3 seconds till you see an Apple Logo. Once the iPhone boots backup, Now try Bluetooth again.
    2. Reboot the iPhone. Press Sleep/Wake and Home button together, Let go once you see Apple Logo. iPhone will Reboot and come back, Now test Bluetooth
    3.Go to Settings- Toggle Airport Mode on, Then Off, Retest Bluetooth
    4.Go to Settings- General-Reset-Reset Network Settings, Retest Bluetooth
    5. Now that we covered all the basic settings without touching data. If you still can not get Bluetooth to work try the last couple steps.
    6. Find another Bluetooth headset see if the iPhone sees it.
    7.Backup your Data, Restore iPhone, Test Bluetooth
    If this all fails. Take your iPhone and Bluetooth headset to an Apple Retail store, Where they can attempt a couple more last min troubleshooting steps on iPhone.
    If another Bluetooth works with your iPhone then you had a Bluetooth headset issue. But taking your Bluetooth headset into Apple Retail will allow them to test it on other iPhones to rule out an issue with your hardware.
    Please book an appointment at your local store before going in.

  • Iphone 4s world must active phone when change simcard

    iphone 4s world must active phone when change simcard

    I have this same problem, and I also have the issue that contacts are recognized only in SMS and not in receiving calls (I store my contacts in intl format - i.e. +94 xxxxxxxxx). If I store it as 0xxxxxxx then number recognition works when calling but not SMS. Of course it is an option to store both numbers, but that,s a silly workaround on a device that cost 649$ when my 40$ dumb phone can manage effortlessly.
    I think the problems are connected, and that it is to do with recognizing the local country code in Sri Lanka. I used the phone in India (Vodafone in Chennai) and the number recognition was not an issue - I.e. local numbers saved in intl format were recognized in calls and SMS. (didn't try to use siri for dialing so can't comment on that)

  • Iphone stereo headset warranty

    Hey guys,
    I bought the iphone stereo headset
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MA814LL/A?fnode=MTY1NDA1MA&mco=MTA4NDA3ODc
    bought it in march 2010 for my iphone 3G, cause the one which came with the one totally got broken. It came with a one-year warranty. Now this headphone also got worn out, quality reduced, rubber detached, volume reduced, buzz is heard, even though I bought it only a few months ago, now the question is ... can I replace it ? since I've got the warranty, can I go to an apple store and replace it ?
    Please help

    can I go to an apple store and replace it ?
    Make an appointment & take your headphones & receipt. If the geniuses find your issue to be covered by warranty, they will replace your headphones on the spot.

  • I bought a book on itunes, and can't open it. tried to send it to my iphone so i could read it there and it won't let me carry it over. I have updated Ibook on my iphone. What do I do? I do not want to buy the book again.

    I bought a book on itunes, and can't open it. tried to send it to my iphone so i could read it there and it won't let me carry it over. I have updated Ibook on my iphone. What do I do? I do not want to buy the book again.

    You won't be able to open it on your computer, ibooks can currently only be read in the iBooks app on an iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. How were you trying to get it to your phone, syncing it by selecting it on the iPhone's Books tab when connected to your computer's iTunes, or by dragging-and-dropping it from the Books part of your iTunes library over and onto the iPhone 'device' ?  Another option is to try re-downloading it directly in the iBooks app on your iPhone via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in it (re-downloading).
