    If your contacts are synced to your computer then they are in the supported app you are syncing with.
    When you set up syncing of contacts on your device, which application did you select?

    I am trying to update my ipad 2 but it keeps telling me that it isn't eligible for the requested build how can i fix this problem

    This device is not eligible for the requested build (Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194")
    Update to the latest version of iTunes.
    Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, followTroubleshooting security software issues.
    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to perform unauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. Uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer.
    Edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from your hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart.
    Avoid using an older or modified .ipsw file. Try moving the current .ipsw file (see Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations), or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.

  • My iPhone is water damaged, can I still qualify for the out-of-warranty replacement eventhough I bought it in Mexico?

    My iPhone 4s was water damaged, and I want to know if I can have an out-of-warranty replacement if I take it to a US apple store eventhough I bought it in Mexico.

    I don't think so, but doesn't hurt to try.

  • I have an unopened white iphone that i want to trade for the black, is this possible at the apple store

    yeah, the white looks cheap

    And if you did not purchase the iPhone from an Apple Store, you will have to go back to the dealer from whom you purchased the iPhone and ask them if you can exchange the iPhone. The Apple Store would not accept a return of a product not purchased from them.

  • Specialists that repair water damaged iPhones in the UK

    My iPhone4 survived being in the washing machine ( !!). Worked when I pulled it out after 10m inside. I left it to dry for two weeks with silica gel. Continued to work for nine months.
    Then I went running. It started to rain so I slipped the iPhone up my sleeve... where sweat appears to have been wicked from my skin into the iPhone via my running top. Result: after two weeks drying out the screen had clear imperfections and damage although everything appeared to work. A month later: the screen backlight failed and wouldn't revive. I suspect salt has damaged the screen.
    What it needs is a complete clean and probably a new screen.
    Other than Apple, where in the UK repairs liquid damaged iPhones? I'd like to go for a firm that specialises so they do a full clean of the insides -- to reduce the chance of more damage happening later due to salt corrosion -- as well as replacing the obviously currently damaged screen components.
    Suggestions?
    All appreciated. thx.

  • My iPhone 5 got badly damaged. Can the Genius Bar still find a way to repair it?

    My black iPhone 5 64GB got severely damaged during a quarrel with my girlfriend. The screen was cracked and separated from the flex cable and other parts inside the enclosure. The home button is gone. And the plastic rim which was ought to be around the screen was also broken. Can I still get it repaired? I'd like to replace the enclosure as well. How much and how long will it take?

    Apple would not repair that - they might replace it under the out of warranty exchange program.  For an iPhone 5 the out of warranty replacement price is $269.00 and they just swap your damaged one for a factory refurbished one right there in the store.
    However, there is the caveat that to be eligible it must be essentially still intact.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipho ne
    "Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications.  However, an iPhone that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service."
    So, take it into an Apple Store and ask about an out of warranty replacement - only Apple can tell you if you qualify or not.

  • Am I Eligible For The iPhone 3Gs Upgrade?

    Ok so I purchased the original iPhone December of 2007 & signed up for a 2 year contract. I then purchased the iPhone 3G the day it came out July 2008. So basically this is my question / situation: I am not sure if I am eligible for the upgrade to iPhone 3Gs. When I got the second generation of the iPhone did that start my contract ALL over again, or did it just have it continue. Because if I didn't renew it ... then that would make me eligible for the $200 upgrade to the iPhone 3Gs. But if I did indeed start a whole new contract in July 2008, then I am not eligible right? Any help would be fantastic!
    * May I add that I have been a ATT customer for almost 10 years now, that should help my case a little right? haha

    You have been an AT&T subscriber for nearly 10 years with the same upgrade policy in regards to subsidized phones - which wasn't a problem for you until now, but it should be different with the iPhone for some reason?
    AT&T has been "taking" hundreds of dollars a month from you by your choice, and you received something in exchange for what you have paid every month - placing and receiving calls and probably messaging. The same would apply with any cellular provider. The provider "takes" your money every month based on your chosen calling and messaging plans, which allows you to place and receive calls and messaging.
    You may be able to get AT&T to make an exception for you with the iPhone 3GS based on being a subscriber for so long, but they haven't taken your money without providing associated services in return, which you must be pretty happy with since you have been an AT&T subscriber for nearly 10 years. I certainly wouldn't allow any carrier to "take" my money everything month if I wasn't receiving what I'm paying for and expecting in return.

  • Am I eligible for the Educational Discount under these conditions?

    Hello.
    I am currently attending college and will be graduating in March.  I would like to continue to use adobe products, but I'm not sure if I'll be eligible for the Education license. I would like to hold off for the release of CS6, but it doesn't look like it will be out before my March graduation date. My student ID shows as being valid until December of 2012 and I will have access to my .edu email.
    If CS6 comes out after March will I still be able to purchase the Creative Suite, Educational version?
    Thank you!
    Bo

    Ok... I spoke with two different reps to confirm. I graduate in March, but was told that I would be eligible for the educational program with my Student ID since it expires in December and I will still be able to use my .edu email. The second rep also told me that you are elligible 6 months from graduation. I don't know if I really believed that, but I'll pass that in my response.
    It would be nice if CS6 released in February so I wouldn't have to worry, but I think I'm going to stick it out and try for CS6. I primarily use photoshop for photography at school and I love photography as a hobby... CS6 seems to have some nice upgrades with Camera RAW support/features.
    Thanks for the support guys.

  • No Longer Eligible for the Student Discount?

    I noticed on my billing statement that I was charged $9.99 for the last month or so of Spotify Premium even though I definitely remember signing up for the student discount.
    I went to the Student Discount page and tried to re-subscribe through there, but I got this error message, "It appears that you are not eligible for the discounted product that you are trying to purchase. If you'd like you can still upgrade your account to premium at any time."
    I am still a student so I should still be eligible, right? 
    Thanks!

    Hey there , welcome to the community!
    No worries! You are definitely still eligible for the promotion, it's just that you've ran into a bug in the system. In order to apply the student discount to your account, your account cannot have an active premium subscription. Since you currently have Spotify Premium, you need to cancel it here and wait for your account to revert back to 'Spotify Free' before re-applying the discount. Sorry for the inconvenience this bug has caused you!
