Is the iphone 4's wifi free?

This might be a dumb question, but I recently installed the AT&T myWireless app on my phone, and it says that i have already used 50mb of my 200mb of data in just 4 days, and most of the time that i am doing heavy internet activity is over wifi. Unless i am underestimating how much data I use over 3g...is wifi free?

Push not only uses data, it use battery as well. Remember, when the iphone goes into sleep mode, WiFi is turned off to save battery, & the iphone will use the cellular data network for its data needs. To conserve your data usage, turn off eMail Push & Fetch, close ALL Safari windows when finished using Safari, minimise the use of apps which utilize unattended data e.g. RSS Feeds, etc...

  • HT1414 I just got a replacement iPhone 5 (64MB) for one with a cracked face, and tried to restore it.  Got an error message saying the iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available on the iPhone.  Now what?

    I just replaced my iPhone 5 because of a cracked face.  I backed up the old phone to iTunes.  When I tried to restore my data off of iTunes to the new phone, I got an error message saying that iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available on the new iPhone.  Now what?
    I have Apple Care+, but I'll be darned if I can find any way to contact anyone at Apple to talk to about this.  They take your money, but make darned sure they don't have to support you unless you jump through a bunch of hoops first, like this site.

    I've done a restore.. The phone was completely wiped back to factory settings.. It then tells me there isn't enough space on the phone to restore from back up? How when the phone is empty?!

  • Hello! The question is this. In London, took the Iphone 5 as sim free, flew to Moscow put Simcoe, and he writes me that is locked to the operator O2. Can anyone encountered this problem? What to do? How to remove the Unlock?

    Look at your receipt. Does it say unlocked? It is possible to purchase both locked "sim free" and unlocked iPhones from Apple.
    ONLY the carrier an iPhone is locked to can legitimately unlock it.
    IF your receipt says that it was supposed to be unlocked, and it is not, call AppleCare. They should be able to straighten it out.

  • HT1766 I backed up to my PC and attempted restore but I keep getting an error message that "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available." I have a 32GB iPhone; only 13GB used!!!  HELP!  iCloud backup/restore did not work

    I backed up to my PC and attempted restore but I keep getting an error message that "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available." I have a 32GB iPhone; only 13GB used!!!  HELP!  iCloud backup/restore did not work either! How can I resolve this problem to restore from back up.

    If you're not a developer then you really should not have upgraded.
    I'm unsure how you can fix this as you have already done a back-up on iOS 7 and apple don't support firmware downgrades.

  • "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available of the iPhone"??????

    Before updating to iOS6, I backed my iPhone up onto my PC, as I am aware that when updating an iPhone things like notes, contacts etc tend to disappear. However, after the update was complete, when I tried to 'restore back up' I keep getting the message "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available of the iPhone". I don't understand why this message keeps coming up, because I have 20.96GB free space. All my contacts have gone, and I urgently need them for work. What can I do to solve this problem???

    I suggest you delete some stuff off your phone so free up some memory and try again

  • TS4036 itunes could not restore the iphone because not enough free space is available on the iphone

    On April 13, 2013 i plugged my phone in and itunes immediately started an upgrade on my iphone 4 operating system to ios 6.1.3.  ONce it completed my phone was restored to factury settings.  When i tried restore my backup to the phone, i got the following message
    itunes could not restore the iphone because not enough free space is available on the iphone
    I am so ****** because i can't figure out a way to at least get my photos from this back...its all lost
    I spoke with an Apple rep that day named Jamie who was supposed to help me retrieve my data, but we couldn't figure it out and he asked me to call back in a day or so to get it done.  When I called back, i left several messages and got no response.  Now i try calling support and they want money before they will talk to me.
    Somebody please help.
    Thanks

    If you restored your phone as new there should be plenty of free space on it.  Check Settings>General>Usage to see how much free space you have.
    Is your backup on your computer or in iCloud?

  • When is Verizon going to offer the iPhone 4 8GB for free with 2 year contract extention?

    Just wondering when this was going to happen.  My wife is due for an upgrade and I'd like t wait and get the iPhone 4 for free rather than paying 100 bucks right now and extend the contract for two more years.

    Also....whats the deal with there not being an option to chat with someone from Verizon about simple questions like this.....geez.....this is really aggravating.
    Well, it's a simple question and I can tell you the answer you would get. "We have no information"
    In general, businesses don't tell you "Don't buy now.  Wait X weeks and it will be cheaper".

  • Want to give the iphone to my wife... several questions

    I bought an iphone about a month ago, just to test it out. My wife has a Sprint phone that she hates, and so I want to give her the iphone, but I have a few questions:
    -Can I transfer her cell number to this phone? The phone number on the iphone is not one we are concerned with keeping for any of our other phones.
    -If I can, I'd like to keep the billing info under my name, as it is now. Can I?
    -I want her to be able to use her computer as the sole docking station. Up until now, it is docking only to my computer. Possible? I know that all info on the iphone presently will go away (contacts, etc).
    Thanks!

    -Can I transfer her cell number to this phone? The phone number on the iphone is not one we are concerned with keeping for any of our other phones.
    Sure but this will require contacting AT&T customer service prior to canceling your Wife's Sprint account. AT&T will handle the porting of your Wife's Sprint phone number to this iPhone while canceling your existing AT&T number. Do not contact Sprint to cancel your Wife's account - AT&T will handle the entire number porting process which will cancel your Wife's Sprint account automatically.
    -If I can, I'd like to keep the billing info under my name, as it is now. Can I?
    Not a problem - AT&T doesn't need to know anything about this - only that you are porting a number from Sprint to this iPhone.
    -I want her to be able to use her computer as the sole docking station. Up until now, it is docking only to my computer. Possible? I know that all info on the iphone presently will go away (contacts, etc).
    Yes - you can erase all data and settings on the iPhone prior to giving this iPhone to your Wife.

  • Any way to use the iPhone on a WiFi network that requires me to..

    1. Enter both username and password
    2. Download a specific digital certificate before connecting
    Can the iPhone do this? All the WiFi networks on colleges and universities here in Norway use the same login and password with a specific digital certificate.

    OK, so your old iTunes library was on your PC and now the library is on your Mac?  Do I have that right?  Your iPhone and iPad were auto syncing to the PC and now you connect them to your Mac and it wants to clear out the media?
    This is important, do you have in your iTunes library on your new Mac, the media you want now?  Or are you trying to move your media by copying what is on the iPhone/iPad to your iTunes?

  • ITunes Match on the iPhone 4 uses all free space

    iTunes Match on the iPhone 4 uses all available space (8GB). The deactivation and reactivation does not work. The problem persists! Even unplugging the Apple ID and opening the Music app there are still all the artists, playlists, albums, etc. etc. (in the settings app music occupies 0 bytes! Have not saved songs). I have already restored three times! restarting iPhone available space returns to 8GB, opening the Music app after a few minutes iOS noted that the space is occupied.
    iPad 2 and iPhone 3GS regularly work with the same Apple ID!
    Any advice?

    I am also reporting the same behavior.  I, like billybaloney, have an almost "topped-out" iTunes Match collection (I actually have to manage keeping the matched content under the Apple 25K limit, but that is a different matter).  Whenever I open Music app on my phone - 4S, iOS 7.11 - I see my available storage go to nil, and I start getting the "Storage Almost Full" messages.  Which, if you have received them, also puts a significant drag on the performance of the device. 
    I am fully aware of the download locally (device) of "played" content, so I expect the number of songs and albums I have played to be resident on the phone after, and that requiring manual cleanup.  I can see this by taking the phone offline (airplane mode, or literally out of coverage), and then opening the Music app and seeing only what is truly on the device.
    I suspect that the "eater of free space" in the iTunes Match arena, for users with a large library of iCloud selections, is as simple as the iTunes library info to render for selection (not the music, but the artist, album, song and playlist lists, and the album artwork).  Resetting your phone is a PITA for workaround.  Something needs to be done, but I have a feeling nothing will.  Or it will require an iOS update to a newer version that my devices won't be eligible to load. 
    Any insight or help would be great.  Workarounds are only that: work arounds.  Solution is what is needed.

  • ITunes could not back up the iPhone because not enough free space is available on this computer

    iTunes 11.0.1 (22)
    Mac OS X 10.6.8
    218.83 GB available
    iOS 6.0.2
    iPhone5
    I get this error occasionally since getting the iPhone5 in October. My last successful back up to thei Mac was yesterday. Tonight, no backup.
    One time when this occurred I had trashed files, and after I emptied the Trash the sympton went away. Tonight I had files in the Trash and emptie the Trash before connecting my iPhone and now no backup allowed.
    I have quit and relaunched iTunes, and unconnected and connected the iPhone tonight with no change in the symptom.
    My next counter measure will be to reboot.
    Any suggestions?

    On my computer (Spring 2006 iMac, Snow Leopard, iTunes 11.1.3):
      - I have 1.36 _terabytes_ of free space on my system disk.
      - I have 2.1 _terabytes_ of free space on my Drobo[*] which contains my iTunes library.
    My iPhone is an iPhone 5S 64Gb.
    A backup should require, one would assume, less than 64Gb. In other words, a drop in the ocean of free space available to iTunes.
    ... and yet EVERY time I attempt a backup to my computer since getting my 5S it says:
        'iTunes could not back up the iPhone "[name]'s iPhone" because not enough free space is available on this computer. Removing files and emptying the Trash will free up additional space.'
    It's very clear that there's a bug given how much space I have available, and it's been present for 2+ months. :/ I had been able to back up my iPhone 4S.
    - Stephen
    [*] As far as the OS is concerned, the volume has 3.22Tb free, but it is backed by 2.10Tb of actual available space. In any case, "a whole heck of a lot".

  • Can you buy the iPhone 4s that is free without a payment plan?

    Hello. I recently found out that you can buy a free iPhone at the Online Apple Store.  It's the iPhone 4s. It's pretty cool! Now, I already have internet at home, I don't make calls, so I wonder if I can get the iPhone with ought having a payment plan! I might as well take the chance of buying it. Ok thanks!

    No. It's not. The phone is paid for by a carrier in exchange for signing a 2 year service agreement. It's "subsidised". NOT free.

  • So does the iPHone 5 come with free hotspot on old nationwide plans?

    I keep reading in articles online and in these forums that, unless you have unlimited data, Verizon will not charge for mobile hotspot on LTE because of an FCC ruling? However, when I preordered the iPhone 5it wanted me to buy a mobile hotspot plan. So which is it?

    On the unlimited data plan, the mobile hotspot is a separate charge with the cost changing when you have a 3G only smartphone or a 4G LTE smartphone.  On the Share Everything plans, the hotspot is included. On the individual tiered data plans, I'm not sure how the mobile hotspot is figured in anymore.

  • IPhone 4s. Wifi Free SMS

    Can anyone suggest me a free app for Sending free SMS that Allows  me to choose my own number. Since I don't have unlimited text in my plan.....
    For call display any app?

    Apple Genius showed me how to fix this today!!!!! And it worked!
    1. Back up iPhone as always (just in case)
    2. Goto settings
    3. Select Reset
    4. Select Reset All Setting
    NOTE: Your data all remains in tact, but you will need to reconfigure you iPhone (eg wallpaper, ringtone selection, mail signature etc as they will return to the defaults).
    My iPhone 4S now has wifi and Bluetooth back!
