Iphone 5 brought in uk two weeks ago - no 4g lte button
On my iphone 5 that i purchased from uk and shipped to Dubai. I am unable to see the 4g lte button under the Settings- General -Cellular ON.
All i see is the enable 3g button, cellular data, data roaming and personal hotspot. Does this imply that my 4g is no activated on my handset or do i need to do something. When i activated my sim card in uae, i had to punch the sim card from micro to nano , the sim card works successfully but i cannot see the 4g lte network button on my iphone 5 device. Is this a problem with my handset my new iphone 5 or the sim card? any suggestions would be great
In the UK, they will be charging additional for LTE - this could be why you need to get a nano sim as your carrier needs to know that you have a 4G device so they can charge accordingly for it.
The enable LTE button will only be present if the carrier is offering LTE - the Etisalat announcement doesnt indicate whether or not it is live. However, your existing SIM card is most likely only a 3G SIM which means it is not set up to be 4G capable.
If Etisalat are live with 4G I would imagine a nano Sim would fix your problems, however if they dont sell iphone 5 yet, you may have issues getting a nano sim? The button is all down to your carrier and not down to apple, there are various features that the carrier set up themselves in relation to buttons and so on.
What usually happens in the UK is when new features are available - say 4G for example, an SMS is receeived by the carrier, you switch your phone off and on and then the Enable 4G button would be available. This is most likely what will happen with Vodafone and o2.
Hope that helps.

Two weeks ago both my wifes iPhone 4 and my iPhone 4 facetime stopped working. Others people with iPads have tried to connect with us using facetime and it all stopped. It trys to connect but then immediately disconnects. No changes to our internal wi-fi. I have checked the facetime settings and even reset my iPhone with no luck. My wife and I can not facetime when we are in the same room. All this worked for years before these last two weeks.

Is anyone having an issue with the App Store since upgrading to ios 5? I have iphone 4S and upgraded two weeks ago to ios 5, and yesterday I tried to access the App Store and could only get Genius and Updates....no App Store and couldn't search or go to Catagories in App Store!
I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more. And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should. On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much. I will post a note in the app store to let them know. I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine.
Starbucks app works as it should.
I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again. -
The battery of my iPhone, which I just bought two weeks ago, seems to be too short.
I just bought this iPhone about two weeks in Regant Street apple store in London. At the beginning, I didn't pay too much attention to the battery time. However, I found there seems to be some problems about the battery time. Especially, I compared my iPhone with my friend's. I realized that my iPhone battery time is too much shorter than that of my friend's.
So I come here to ask for some help to see whether there are some way or software to check my battery is normal or not?
I studying in Oxford in which there is not an apple retail store, and I am preparing for the exam. After the exam, I gotta go back to China for the summer vocation at the end of May. So I may not have too much time. How long will it take if the iPhone need to be fixed?
Can I enjoyed the customer service in China? If that possible can I change a new iPhone or not?" How long will it take if the iPhone need to be fixed?"
If the iphone is defective then they will swap it out on the spot.
"Can I enjoyed the customer service in China?"
Probably not. -
HP laptop, Windows XP, FF 4.0. Don't remember changing any add ons or version of FF when the issue started. Sometimes when I opened a new page off a web site the back button works and I can go back to the home page, sometimes it does not work. This is totally random. I use multiple tabs for news sources and this issue is not associated with a particular site. Short of uninstall and reinstall, loosing all my add ins and features, I don't know how to fix this. I have been using FF for years on this computer. This bug just started a couple of weeks prior to FF 4.0 coming out.
Do you have the McAfee Site Advisor, that one is known to cause problems with the back button. If you have it try disabling it and the back button should function normally.
If you do not have that add-on, you can check to see if another add-on is causing this, for details of how to do that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes -
Hi, i've just updated my iphone 5s to ios7.1 two weeks ago, however, 4 days ago, my phone's screen turned blue then grey. I have tried restoring it through i tunes but itunes keep saying error 40. Can this still be fixed? or does it need a replacement?
Hey everyone in Apple world!
I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP! Yessssss!!!
I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process. Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal. No flashing yellow screen anymore!!
(Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
Let me know if this works for you!

I bought my iPad mini two weeks ago and used my apple ID to make it sync with my iPhone. But so far I have not been able to activate iMessage and face time. It only gives me the option of signing in and when I do that I get an error message telling me that either my user name or password for my email is incorrect; even though I have been using my correct my apple ID in the password entry area. My apple ID works for every thing else. Please, can you help in this case?

I changed my Apple ID two weeks ago and I accidently forgot to sign out of my iCloud on my iPhone 5C. Now it wont let me change the iCloud ID to match my new Apple ID. How do I change my iCloud ID even though it is asking for the old ID?
If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Hi, my iPhone was stolen two weeks ago, and I called ATT to suspend the service. Today, we were about to find it using my iPod, and it is now under a different name. What should I do? Should I report to police? I did called ATT again, and they told me that they cannot do anything, since the SIM card might have been replaced.
Doesn't hurt to call the police.
The SIM wasn't replaced; if it were, you wouldn't have been able to locate it. -
HT204053 How do I restore a back up from two weeks ago from my icloud to my iphone
How do I restore a back up from two weeks ago from my icloud to my iphone
If you apps are still in iTunes, you should be able to sync them back to your computer. Otherwise, if you have iOS 5 (5.01) on your phone you could redownload them by launching Apps, press the Purchased button at the bottom, press Purchased at the top, then Not On This Phone. This will list your apps and allow you to redownload them. If you've purchased apps using multiple Apple IDs, you will have to sign in to each of these IDs to be able to download all your apps (by going to Settings>Store>tap on the Apple ID, sign out, sign back in using another ID).

My Iphone 4 was stolen two weeks ago...
Good Day Everyone!!!!
I am in need of an expert to give me knowledge on how to trace my lost IPHONE4.. It was stolen two weeks ago.... Please help me to find where is the exact location on it? And is it possible that my phone will be back to me? Need some piece of advices from you guys.....At this time, it will be very difficult to try to locate your phone. If you had find my phone turned on, you could try going to iCloud.com to try to locate it but it would have to be on and connected to a wifi signal. As I said, the fact that it has been 2 weeks now will make it difficult to find it.

Not being able to use my phone and went to the apple store and had them restore it. When that happened it of
Course deleted all my stuff on my phone. When I was talking to apple support on the phone they told
Me that my computer was not downloading mobile me or apple mobile support. I've never had problems before until I tried updating it. So now Ive tried
Reinstalling iTunes and my computer will not dl mobile me or apple mobile support. I went to their support online and followed some
Of their stuff to try to fix and disabled Something and it told me to restart my computer and so I did and now I can't find the page where it was giving me the directions for it bc when I disabled programs it somehow disabled to where I can't get on the Internet. My phone works fine now just don't have my numbers, music, apps, ringtones pictures etc. The problem is now my computer, iTunes, my Internet connection, and mobile me and apple mobile software.

The airplay icon has disappeared from my MAC desktop. It was there two weeks ago when I successfully used it to 'flick a movie i had purchased from iTunes over to my tv. Also, if I rent the movie through iTunes, why (because of the above issue) when I go to 'Purchased' it doesn't display as an option when actually using Apple TV, it doesn't display but when I go to rent it again a message comes up saying "you have already rented this movie, do you want to rent it again"? Frustrated!!
Ok Fellas, let me give you a clue: Games, particularly those that make heavy use of graphics and sound are notoriously power hungry. In fact, when I was in the Navy many years ago, the folks working on the NTDS (Navy Tactical Data System) computers used a version of Space Invaders to load test the AN/UYK-43 computers.
I have also noticed that all of my laptops (I have a brand new Toshiba dual core, an older Toshiba single core, plus 2 Dell dual core machines) have significantly shorter battery life when I play Company of Heroes than when I am just reading e-mail or surfing the 'Net. I have also noticed the same behavior when I play games on my 4th gen Touch and my iPhone 4.
The fact is, iOS 5 did make some major improvements as well as adding some nice functionality like iMessage, wireless synch, and such, but the down side is that depending on how you use the device battery life can be shorter that what you may have experienced with pervious versions of iOS. Its just the nature of the beast...

On my iPad mini, my inbox number count is over 500 even though the inbox. Is empty. All accounts do this on my iPad but all my other device are fine. Problem showed up two weeks ago???
Hi Peter,
Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like the Mail app on your iPad mini is showing that you have over 500 unread email messages, but your inbox is actually empty.
There are several steps I'd use to troubleshoot this situation.
First, restart your iPad to see if it clears up the symtom:
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
Drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
If this doesn't correct the behavior, try removing and re-adding the affected email accounts next:
Get help with Mail on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Delete the affected email account from your device.
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap the affected email account.
Tap Delete Account.
Add your account again.
If the same thing happens after re-adding the account, you may need to use the steps below to reinstall iOS. You may want to back up your iPad to iTunes before completing this step.
Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
Put your device in recovery mode.
When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
From:
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
All the best,
Jeremy
