  • Hi, I recently got myself an apple iphone 5s (factory unlocked) phone from the US. However on using the same in India with Vodafone, i am facing a problem where the connectivity keeps switching to EDGE most of the time. Any solutions??

    Hi,
    I recently got myself an apple iphone 5s (factory unlocked) phone from the US. However on using the same in India with Vodafone, i am facing a problem where the connectivity keeps switching to EDGE most of the time. I have a 3G plan but most of the time it switches automatically to EDGE. Thats when i have to either switch Airplane mode - On/Off and then it acts normal. Any permanant solutions to fix this problem?

    Return the iPhone personally or via friend/relative/co-worker who is in
    the US. The warranty is valid only in the country of original purchase - the USA
    in this case. Apple will not accept international shipments for evaluation nor
    will Apple ship out of the country after repair/replacement.
    How did the iPhone from the US get to you in India? Reverse that process to
    get it back to the US so someone can take it into Apple.

  • Can i factory reset an iphone thru itunes or icloud without having my iphone present

    can i factory reset an iphone thru itunes or icloud without having my iphone present

    If you set up Find My iPhone and the phone appears in iCloud.com, you can erase it, which is what I presume you are wanting to do. If you didn't set up Find My iPhone or it doesn't appear there, then there's no way to erase the phone without having it in hand.

    My son and I both have iphones with the same Apple ID. Since I installed iOS this morning I have started receiving all my sons texts and when I send him a text it is delivered to both of us. How can I remove my phone from the joint Apple ID and remove myself from finding out what he is up to during Freshers week!

    You have to use a different Apple ID for your son.

  • Somebody uses my apple id for facetime on his iphone how can i remove his phone from my account?

    somebody uses my apple id for facetime on his iphone how can i remove his phone from my account?

    Last Spring I received a couple of emails to an alias I set up a long time ago under mac mail with mac.com - not my main ID - at mac.com.   The mail had the Icloud extension.     I just deleted it.
    I then received a couple of e-mails forwarded to the same alias that came from a non-apple account that led me to search to see if the company was legit - it was.     Using a non-apple hidden account I sent that non-apple account an email informing them apparently when they registered the ID or alias as an ICLOUD extension - apple did not check for duplication in accounts or aliases that were not in the Icloud.
    I also sent feedback to Apple telling them to fix it and apparently they did - along with the person who replicated my alias.
    On this site there were a number of postings from people who also had problems with mac mail and Icloud who resolved it by contacting Apple and getting the accounts cleared up.

  • HT2729 how can i transfer hindi songs from laptop (window ultimate) to new ipad ? pl. help

    how can i transfer hindi songs from laptop (window ultimate) to new ipad ? pl. help

    If you haven't already done so then download and install iTunes : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Add the songs into your computer's iTunes via File > Add To Library
    Connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Music - if you select that tab you can then select which of your iTunes music to sync to the iPad (it should sync to the Music app on the iPad).

    What do you mean get password so no one can make or take drives from laptop? This is confusing as to what your saying or asking?
    Passwords if you don't write it down or remember how it was written will be good or bad for you if you forget it. So don't just think it will lock others out - you can also lock yourself out as well. Rather you should keep your laptop in a safe place where you have access to it and no one else and only put password on it when you travel or if another members wants to use it you password block the Admin/Main user but make them a Limited user account that way they have no access to your important files.

    Take it to an authorized service center or Apple Store in the country where the phone originated.  Apple does not sell iPhones in Pakistan, nor will they ship them to Pakistan.

  • Can i buy i phone from US and use it in India or different part of the world after unlocking it? if yes, than will apple unlock it or need  to do it by myself?

    can i buy i phone from US and use it in India or different part of the world after unlocking it? if yes, than will apple unlock it or need  to do it by myself?

    There are no officially unlocked iPhone 5's available, in the US, at the present time. No announcement, as to availability has been made. The only unlocked iPhone, available now, is the iPhone 4 or 4S. Either of these versions will work, but will have no warranty or support in India. They can only be purchased directly from Apple, no where else.

  • Phone can't factory reset and doesn't have password to configure.

    Hi,
    I just receive a cisco 7960. I did the following but the phone doesn't detect "#":
    Unplug the power cable from the phone, and then plug in the cable again.The phone begins its power up cycle.
    Immediately press and hold # and while the Headset, Mute, and Speaker buttons begin to flash in sequence, release #.The Headset, Mute, and Speaker buttons flash in sequence in order to indicate that the phone waits for you to enter the key sequence for the reset.
    Press 123456789*0# within 60 seconds after the Headset, Mute, and Speaker buttons begin to flash.If you repeat a key within the sequence, for example, if you press 1223456789*0#, the sequence is still accepted and the phone resets.If you do not complete this key sequence or do not press any keys, after 60 seconds, the Headset, Mute, and Speaker buttons no longer flash, and the phone continues with its normal startup process. The phone does not reset.If you enter an invalid key sequence, the buttons no longer flash, and the phone continues with its normal startup process. The phone does not reset.If you enter this key sequence correctly, the phone displays this prompt:Keep network cfg? 1 = yes 2 = no
    In order to maintain the current network configuration settings for the phone when the phone resets, press 1. In order to reset the network configuration settings when the phone resets, press 2.
    I have tested that the # key is working as i can still hear the tone when it is being pressed. Is there anyway i can restore the phone back to factory mode?
    Pls kindly assist.

    Hi,
    the method described above is the only method to factory reset a phone.
    You must be patient, though :-) Sometimes it takes ages for the phone to move on to the next step.
    What you need to do is to unplug, press and hold the # button and then plug the cable back in.

  • Can you factory reset a laptop with a non genuine Windows 7?

    A few years ago, my mother bought a laptop for a pretty good price from some guy. After a few days, it gave her a message that Windows 7 on that laptop was not genuine. Then I started using it and downloaded a program to get rid of the message and allow me to set pictures as my background. The laptop, over time, became slow and the memory was quickly being used (only because there was no antivirus on it and it barely had any memory). I gave it to my cousin, and my mother asked for money for it.
    As I was ridding the laptop of all the useless programs it would no longer need, the thought of factory resetting never crossed my mind. Today, I thought of it, and I was wondering if it's possible to factory reset a laptop that doesn't have a genuine Windows. Or would it mess it up? As soon as my cousin gets another charger for it, I wanted to try it out and see if that would speed the laptop up by a lot and make it feel brand new. Or would Windows be gone or ask for an activation code?

    Just so no viewers get confused, it's the 9 GB partition that contains the recovery image. So if you don't have that big one, you can't restore from the disk.
    The 1.46 GB partition is marked Active because it has the boot files. It also contains the recovery environment. (Microsoft likes to name the partition with Windows the Boot partition, but it doesn't have the boot files.)

  • Factory reset my satellite laptop

    hey, i would like to factory reset my satellite x200/x205 series. it's an old computer with alot of stuff on it. i would just like to in a way start fresh with a "new" computer. i have backed up and transferred all my important files and documents already and my computer is ready for a reset. am i doing this right? if i factory reset my comp will it mess up any drivers or anything else on my comp? if so how can i fixit or update any possible drivers afte the reset? i have the toshiba recovery and applications/drivers that came with the computer for windows vista home premium 32 bit disk one and two. if i put those in and follow the prompts is this all i need for a factory reset? i also have the upgrade your windows vista experience disk that came with the computer also.

    When I had so much trouble installing Windows 7 from the purchased cd, I had to do an "out of box recovery" for my laptop . Make a back up disc of everything you want to keep. I only did Windows Photo Gallery, there was nothing else of importance to backup. Then insert the Toshiba Recovery Disc that came with your computer at the time of purchase, and follow all the directions.  If you do not have the Recovery Disc, call  1-800-457-7777, they can send you one, for a very small charge (?? $20.00 or so ??) Make sure you have your Internet Security and Anti-virus disc ready to install. Personally, there were less problems with the install than the download. TIP TIP TIP I use my favorites box all the time, so I wrote down every site I had listed there...that way when the out of box recovery was complete, all I had to do was go to my list (abc order) and open each page or site, then hit add to favorites. That saved me so much time !!! I also write down the passwords for each site, just so I don't have to remember them,and when you're working and trying to think...well senior moment takes on a life of it's own !!!   Hope I helped
