Is the iPhone 5 more susceptible to scratching?

I have had rumors of the iPhone 5 being easier to scratch. I usually use an external battery but, it is not available for the iPhone 5 yet. Will this affect the screen as well?

Until Apple makes an official announcement it is all guesswork and speculation...all we can do is wait and see.

To put your iPhone back in jail do a restore.
This will put iPhone back into factory condition and you can get your updates (assuming you want the updates).

Is the iPhone 5c more durable than the 4s?

The plastic casing seems more break resistant than previous models. If someone almost never drops their phone is a case worth it? Will the screen shatter upon impact?

Yes, and Yes

Can you use the iPhone wirelessly without activating AT&T?

FIrst, I HATE AT&T, the coverage is awful and I am very happy with Verizon. I would like to use the iPhone as more of a PDA, and having a PDA with wireless connectivity would be great.
Do you have to activate the phone plan, or can you just use it with a wireless connection?
Any chance they will eventually offer it with other carriers?
Thanks

Well you can be sure Apple will not make a product for Verizon for at least five years, as that is how long its contract lasts with ATT. That contract prevents Apple from allowing the iPhone to work on anybody else's network, and from making any phones for non-GSM networks. The only other GSM network in the US is T-Mobil. SO I suspect Apple can make a non iPhone for T-Mobile before its deal with ATT expires.
Also, you can try going to ATT and telling them you want the iPhone, however, you will not provide them your social security number, and ask are there any options available to you. They may tell you that you can use the iPhone as a Go-Phone (they are not adversing this, but it is in their policy manual). After a month, cancel the go phone service (as there is no contract). Also, ATT generally allows you to cancel a contract with 30 days. So they might just let you cancel the contract, and your iPhone will probably still work (the non phone features).

Does anyone else feel that the iPhone is sluggish after update 1.1.1?

Is it just me or does anyone else feel that the iPhone feels more sluggish after update 1.1.1? I haven't unlocked or hacked the phone in any way and so it must be due to the update. I thought that the sluggish behavior could be due to a recent update and so I reset the phone. But I still feel that the iPhone has lost that responsiveness that it used to have before. Any one else experiencing this?

Yes, without question I thought typing, especially, was sluggish at first. However, after a day it has seemed to speed up and now, I'd say, is back to original performance, or close to it.
Also, I have lots of contacts (2500), and the phone has been very slow to make the first identification of email addresses when I start typing. Specifically, it freezes for several seconds after the first letter is typed. However, I believe that process is a bit faster after this update.

After iTunes update and the iPhone Synch - No video on my iPhone

My iTunes does not show any catagory for video either. I just saw a lot of "Other" with a different color on my space bar. How do I get my PURCHASED video's - TV shows and movies back?

One thing that might help out.
If the iphone does not recognize the video on the iphone any more, you can try a reset or restore if necessary. However, to get your video back, once you cleared out "other" just sync the video back from itunes.
Here are a couple of articles from the apple support website that might help out.

You might need to reset and or restore the iphone to resolve any software issues.
Hope this helps.

I figured out that whole "iPhoto not seeing the iPhone" thing...

...for me, anyway.
Hopefully, it will work for others, as well.
To preface the problem:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1029222
and
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1043884
To briefly summarize:
My iPhone syncs perfectly fine with iTunes. It DID with iPhoto. The last 60 or so photos, every time I try to sync, iPhoto either says "No items to import" or doesn't even see the iPhone at all (but, iTunes and ASP does).
The last couple days, iPhoto never showed it in the list to even tell me there's no photos to import.
So, I came across an idea whilst trying to go to sleep last night. I got the idea from when I was trying to get my massive photo library to work across the network with Connect360 (so I could stream my photos to my XBOX 360). After several emails with Nullriver, we couldn't come up with a solution... that is until, just for grins, I swapped out the library with a new one with just a couple photos. Then it worked fine.
So, my idea was that, for some reason, as the iPhone took on more photos, the less reliable it became when trying to sync to iPhoto, as was certainly the case in my situation. After too many photos, it just ceased recognition. I had 260 photos in my camera reel. This morning I deleted all but the last 80 I couldn't get to sync.
I plug it into my computer, and immediately, iPhoto pops up and asks if I want to import 80 items. I say, "Please, for the love of God." (It's a button in the debug menu
So, if you are having trouble, try deleting out a lot of the old, already synced photos... get your camera reel numbers down to when it actually worked.
Post here if it fixed your problem - or didn't...
Gigabit Ethernet G4 Mac OS X (10.4.10) Lots of RAM, HD Space, and Apple Lovin'

OK... So, just to make sure it's not my home machine, I plugged my iPhone into my Quad-Core 2.5ghz G5 at work.
Guess what happened?
iTunes popped up and tried to erase everything (Apple needs to fix the 'Automatically sync this iPhone' so that it stays machine independent - as in, if I plug it into my work machine just to harvest the power, I don't want to have to worry about quickly hitting the stop button - but, when I get home, I want my iPhone to automatically sync... but it won't, because it retains the work machine's setting, and vice versa)
iPhoto DIDN'T pop up. I manually opened iPhoto
(a tough task, I know), it SAW the iPhone, but said the usual "There are no items to import." Same thing with Image Capture (0).
So, and here's the kicker... I took 5 more photos...
I plugged it into the Quad-Core...
iTunes popped up fine.
iPhoto didn't.
It also didn't seem to 'see' the iPhone any more.
It's not in the Source list... where is it!
Image Capture only shows my Scanner and no longer the photo import dialog.
My total photos?
A whopping 171...
I'll let you know if it does this when I get home.
OK - nevermind.
I took another 7 photos.
I plugged it in.
Both iTunes and iPhoto popped up.
iPhoto asked if I wanted to import the 178 items.
I wonder if it's some kind of issue with the internal iPhone photo library and it's cataloging... or something.

TS4006 how accurate is the iphone locator

is there anything i can do to make the iphone locator more accurate than within a mile?

No, unfortunaely you cannot do that. You can only try to max. zoom in e.g. at www.icloud.com.

ICHAT on the iPHONE???

I held and iPHONE in my hands for the first time this week-end at the Nashville Apple store. WOW!!! What an awesome device. The iPHONE is more than hype. It is real. This question is for Apple HQ (I know you monitor these forums). Will we see iCHAT on the iPHONE. Placing the camera near the LCD screen (similar to my MACBOOK PRO) will allow video conferencing via AIM or Yahoo Messenger (.MAC Messenger???). An excellent way to gain more customers....

Let Apple know what you think...

Will the iPhone 4S' screen scratch?

Will it scratch? Basically I have a screen protector which is very oily and has lots of air bubbles, Im worried if the phone will scratch easily, also my friends have iPhone's?iPod's?iPad's and nothing ever happened to theirs but I would rather have a better opinion.

I have gone without a screen protector for a few weeks now and still no scratches. I use an otterbox commuter case without a screen protector.
I put it in my front pocket without anything else in the same pocket. "regular glass" isn't easily scrached by copper, iron, clay, etc. quartz sand will scratch "regular" glass though. Since we don't know exactly what kind of strengthened glass the iphone uses, we can't be too sure about what won't scratch it. But one rule for all scratching... the harder the pressure applied - the more likely a scratch will occur.

When I close my iPhone and I want to open it to use it again, the opening process takes more than an hour, I regretted to buy the iPhone because of this problem that you do not suffer at all with Nokia,how I can solve this problem?

If you try all these steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
Be sure to make an appointment first...

I have a new iPhone 6 plus and all is OK. But the mail shows more than 400 'unread' messages whereas there are none in the mailbox or trash or anywhere else I have looked. I can send and receive with no problem. I'm sure I have no unread messages.

jsavage9621,
It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect. This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone. It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here. I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you. I look forward to speaking with you.

How do I sync my iPhone to more than one computer, I have a iMac and a MacBook. Can I sync my phone to both computers?

Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.
Syncing to another will erase the curretn content.

Place the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore as new.
