Iphone Purchased in Middle East with out Facetime and doesnt connect to Mac on new Update Yasmite
I recently visited Dubai and purchased 2 iphone 6, As per middle east Iphone comes without Facetime which is quit disturbing and hard to understand, This week my Mac upgraded to Yasmite which is amazing and i love it, There is a very good option that i can receive calls and make calls from my Mac without worring where my iphones are But all happines went dump when its not connecting with Iphone after searching web that My Iphone need to have FaceTime thats really sad, Iphone should and must provide some solution to this. becasue there are many many users who have iphone without facetime and having complete family of Apple.
Kindly if anyone can help on this to resolve this matter without changing the mobile. Will be highly appreciated
As already stated you can't and won't get facetime on your phone because you purchased a phone where facetime has been banned by the governemt.
It doesn't matter if you move to a different country where facetime is allowed or switch to a different carrier your phone will never have facetime on it.
If you want facetime you will need to purchase a new phone in a country where facetime isn't banned by the government.

I get my iPhone 5 from UAE AND no one inform me that no FaceTime there and I am living in lebanon I am lebanese so who will except my iPhone 5 here in Lebanon with out FaceTime I lost my money in this and Mac should replace our iPhone pls
Why you bought from the UAE .
The phone has NO international warranty and its the UAE and Saudia Arabian authorities that have instructed the function (facetime) to be removed not Apple.
Your best option is to return it to Dubai when next there.
OR contact these companies and see if you can trade to a Facetime friendly model from Europe

Need facetime for Iphone bought in Middle east, using in India
Hi Team,
I bought my iphone 4S in Middle east and hence I cannot use facetime in my phone. Now that I moved back to India, how can I activate the same. Please suggest.
regards,
PrakashIf you purchase an UNLOCKED model from an Apple Store in the US it will work but probably not with LTE if available in your area.
You will have no warranty coverage in India. -
Is the new TMobile contract free iPhone6 factory unlocked? What I mean is will it work in India or Middle east with a local sim card over there?
Previous T-Mobile versions of iPhones (5, 5s, 5C) bought directly from Apple required no activation with T-mobile at all, and would accept any sim card.
Since you are essentially paying full price for the phone. You cannot be locked to a carrier.
They simply came packaged with a T-Mobile sim you could discard and replace with your own.
There's no real reason to think this will change for the new iPhones.

I bought 2 iPhone's 5S that were "contract-free" and they worked just fine with other carriers.
Could some one from the US check if the "contract-free" iPhone 6 could be used with a local carrier?
When they are released, I'm sure many people will do just that. -

How do I enable TDM?
Make sure both computers are turned on and awake.
Connect a male-to-male Mini DisplayPort or ThunderBolt cable to each computer.
Press Command-F2 on the keyboard of the iMac being used as a display to enable TDM.
Note: In Keyboard System Preferences, if the checkbox is enabled for "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard functions keys," the key combination changes to Command-Fn-F2.
How do I exit TDM?
To leave TDM, press Command-F2 on the keyboard of the iMac that is in TDM. You can also exit TDM if you shutdown or sleep either computer or detach the cable.
Can I use a third-party keyboard or older Apple keyboard to enable TDM?
Some older Apple keyboards and keyboards not made by Apple may not allow Command-F2 to toggle display modes. You should use an aluminum wired or wireless Apple keyboard to toggle TDM on and -

can't seem to sync my iphone 4 running ios 7 with itunes 10.6 running on a mac running osx 10.5.8 What can I do to fix this? Is there an itunes update? or How can I return to the previous ios?
To sync an iOS 7 device you need to be running iTunes 11.1.1; iTunes 10.6 is way too old and won't work. You need to install iTunes 11.1.1, but to do that you need to be running at least Mac OS X 10.6.8.
So you need to do the following:
1. Upgrade your Mac to at least OS X 10.6.8 (later preferably, but 10.6.8 at the miniumum).
a. Check first to see if your model Mac can be upgraded, check that it has enough RAM and so forth (2GB at the least, more if possible).
b. If you can't upgrade your Mac, or don't want to, then you will have to buy a new Mac with the latest version of OS X (currently 10.8.5, soon to become 10.9) and iTunes 11.1.1
2. Install iTunes 11.1.1 on your newly upgraded Mac.
3. Sync your iOS 7 iPhone with iTunes. -
