Missing bottom screw for iphone 4

The left screw beside the dock charger on my iphone 4 is missing. Where can I get a screw for my iphone? Or can i ask from apple store since my iphone is still under the 1 year warranty. I bought my phone thru hong kong online store last June 2011. Will something happen to my iphone since one of the screws is missing?

Your posted question reads as a part of an adult-related joke. If you simply want another threaded fastener (I'm going to great lengths not to use the word "screw"), speak with a Genius at an Apple store, and (s)he might find an extra. If the head (dang!) - I mean the top - of the screw is damaged, and the iPhone still works, leave it alone. Here's the bad news...a damaged screw is a clear indication that you've opened the iPhone and, if the iPhone fails, Apple won't replace it (as an out-of-warranty exchange).

Missing guide screws for installing a second drive in my G5

Hi, I just purchased a G5 and went to install a second drive and found only one guide screw in the unit. Has anyone found an inexpensive place to purchase replacement guide screws? I guess I could always use normal screws with some sort of electrical tape on them but I would prefer to get the proper ones.
Thanks.

Did you really purchase a G5 or did you purchase a Mac Pro? The computer in your signature is a Mac Pro, but perhaps you haven't updated your signature for your new purchase. Mac Pro has two optical drive slots whereas the G5 has one.
Anyway, the official hard drive screws for the G5 are here. Notice that they are incredibly expensive. Some have had luck with the drive mounting screws that usually come with a new drive.

[solved] missing latest backups for iPhone after getting replacement phone

Thought I would share this one in case anyone else runs into it.
My the speaker on my wife's iPhone 4 on Verizon had stopped working for phone calls for the second time and a restore didn't fix it, so she returned the phone and they gave her a new one at the store. We had made several backups over the last few days, the most recent was this morning.
So tonight we hooked up the new phone to iTunes and got ready to restore it, but iTunes said the restore was last updated in FEBRUARY. What?! My wife freaked out thinking all her photos etc. were now lost for good.
I held off on the restore and decided to do some checking around before doing anything. I found the folder where the restore files are, and sure enough I found files from today. I copied that folder just in case. I also checked in iTunes itself and the backups were listed. So what was up?!
It finally occured to me that we had recently upgraded her phone to iOS 5, but that the new iPhone 4 from the store was probably still on iOS 4 -- maybe iTunes was not smart enough to see this situation and tell us about it, and maybe it won't listed iOS 5 backups for an iOS 4 phone.
Well that turned out to be the case. But what to do to fix it? I figured if I could get iOS 5 onto the phone, we would be all set. But I didn't want to tell iTunes to label it as a new phone either -- I'm not sure if that would be permanent or what. So I took a leap of faith and held down the power button and home button simultaneously for a while, past the power off notification, until the phone prompted to be connected to iTunes to be restored.
Then I plugged it back into the computer (this is Windows 7, by the way). Sure enough iTunes said it detected a phone in recovery mode, and would I like to have iTunes restore it to factory settings and put on the latest iOS? I sure would, so I did that and waited...
After that was done, iTunes wanted me to active the phone with Verizon. We had already done that an hour earlier over the phone, but tried it anyway, and it failed. We ignored that failure and went into the phone in iTunes -- it now asked if it was a new phone or if we should restore it -- and the backup from this morning was listed. Phew!
Finally completed the restore. I noticed that all of the passwords for all apps were lost -- unlike with a normal restore/backup on the same phone -- but everything else (pcitures, apps, etc.) was there. Thank goodness!
So, if you have upgraded the iOS version and have to replace your phone and the nreplacement has an older iOS verison, then that may explain why your backups appear to be missing...

Yes, I tried. But nothing is working. I am feeling bad as such a costly phone stop working in 1.4 year ?
I am just sharing my experience.
I am not ranting but yes angry as I am eligible for upgrade in Nov 2012 so don't want to pay $149 for replacement as I can upgrade to iPhone 5.
Apple expert please help me how can I fix it. It's completely software issue.

Hi Hamed, i have the same problem.

I'm looking for screws for the bottom of my macbook pro unibody.

I need screws for the bottom of my macbook pro unibody. They started falling out after I upgraded my RAM, apparently they had some type of threadlock on them. Apple was of little help and directed me to a an apple store or service center which is not convienent. So far, I've been only able to find the 'old' pack of 5 screws, not the pack of 10 that my mac requires. I did find one seller on ebay advertising them but would like to avoid that path if possible. Any help in this matter will be greatly appreaciated. Thanks

No this is not a common problem. Have you had the bottom off before?
The factory set screws you see a bit if blue lock tight which makes it more difficult the first time out.
They can replace the screws over the counter at any authorized repair service or Genius bar:

The URL field for iPhone Calendar Events is missing?

iCal on my Mac and my MobileMe Calendar both include a URL field for Events. I don't see the URL field on my iPhone Calendar events??? Am I missing something. I can't automatically have that link sync from iCal or MobileMe? I don't want to always have to manually move the URL into the Notes field.
This is a very annoying - Apple can figure out fancy Multi-tasking and App Folders for iPhone OS 4 but couldn't figure out how to add a simple URL field for Calendar Events??

And your question is?

Anyone using "Missing Sync for iPhone"? Any alternatives?

I have had enough trouble with Mark/Space software's Missing Sync for iPhone 2.0 that I'm pulling my hair out. It is consistently finding conflicts and just keeps popping them up on the screen, and the conflicts are jibberish that make no sense.
I had this trouble with earlier versions of this software, and it digs so deep into your system that even when you're installing software, it will pop up, which scares me as I don't want other apps running while doing something like this.
Now I updated to 2.0, because I thought maybe it would be resolved. No such luck. Now, programs randomly crash saying it's "Missing Sync" app that is crashing, etc, etc. I need to get rid of this program but I want something that is similar: A way to keep/download my call logs and text messages.
Just curious if there are other programs out there that don't run deep in your system, etc.
I've tried and tried to get this resolved from Mark/Space, but their support is abysmal, no answers about what's going on.
Any insight would be great, thanks

Missing TCP/IP settings for iPhone tethering (Bluetooth and USB)

Is it just me or Apple has completely disabled the TCP/IP settings for BT and USB connections for iPhone tethering (and possibly any other mobile devices)?
I can now only set the IP addresses and DNS server. No Proxies or WINS settings tabs.
I have also noticed that if you setup a USB tethering connection in Leopard and upgrade to Snow Leopard, the settings are still available, but NOT if you make a clean install of Snow Leopard and create a new iPhone USB tethering connection.
I always use a SOCKS5 when I'm using my tethering connection for security and better/faster connection with my manual proxy server setup. I find the new "options" in SL very limited, not only for my usage.

I got this to work again (in fact, I'm tethered right now
Here are the steps I followed:
1) Upgraded to iTunes 9
2) Upgraded iPhone to OS 3.1
3) Removed device from Bluetooth Devices list on my MBP
4) Removed Bluetooth PAN from Network preferences
5) Restarted iPhone and MBP
6) Set-up iPhone as a Bluetooth Device on MBP
7) Enabled tethering on iPhone
8) Connected to iPhone network via the Bluetooth icon on my MBP menu bar
9) Verified that the blue "Internet Tethering" bar was on the iPhone
10) Manually added Bluetooth PAN to my MBP network preferences (connect show as yellow, "IP cannot be assigned" message)
11) Opened the Advanced pane and clicked the "Renew DHCP Lease" button
12) IP was assigned!
I'm not sure if the first two steps contributed to the solution or not, but these are the steps that worked for me.
Good luck to you all...

Where can I buy replacement screws for my 2011 17" Macbook pro?

Does anyone know where I can purchase replacement screws for the bottom of my 2011 17" MBP? I am missing one at the bottom left. I saw one site but they only sell screws in bulk, and another that doesn't have them for the newer 2011 models. Any help would be appreciated! There is no apple store near me, I'm in eastern Canada.

Replacement screws for HP Envy j100

Hello. I seem to be missing two screws on the bottom panel of my HP Envy j100 notebook (purchased last year, October 2013). The screws that are missing are in the top left and top right corners (when looking at the keyboard from above). They are the screws that are next to each of the hinges and consequently, the plastic bottom of the laptop is loose. This is also causing the hinges to be loose and flimsy. They were not like this when I originally purchased the laptop. I would like to know where and how I can order some replacement screws for my Envy notebook.
Thank you!

Yoga 13 bottom screws

So, I've just noticed that my Yoga, all of a month old, is missing a screw from the bottom. I called Lenovo Support and they told me they can't simply send me a (set of) screw(s), and I would have to send them my laptop in order to have the screw replaced. I also need a keyboard replacement, and they're willing to send me that, but apparently there's "no way to create an order" for screws, so I have to send it to them.
So my question is this: either A) is there some recourse available to me without having to ship them my laptop and be without for 10 days (or longer, if others' horror stories are true), or B) what screws do I need to buy to do this myself? I'd rather not spend money to replace something still under warranty, but if that's what it takes, then that's what it takes.

WERE you ever able to find the screw? I found thease (MACHINE SCREW STAINLESS M2X4 MM).

Printer control app for iphone

is it possible to roll back to a previous version of the Printer Control app for iphone? I recently and stupidly updated the HP Printer Control app when offered through itunes on October 30 and have lost all the functionality I previously had to print directly from my iphone to my photosmart 7520. Previously I could print whatever pages I chose from Safari and could change the print settings for either draft or normal, colour / black & white before printing. Now when I try to print a page, you don't get the option to just print page 1 and it wastes ink. If I open a pdf (all I've tried so far) document within this new AiO Remote app - even though my printer is listed and supposedly set up - I can't print at all! I desperately want to ditch this abysmal update and go back to the version that worked perfectly. I have conctacted Apple and they were unable to help as it's a third party app and referred me back to HP. Does anyone know how to do this?

Hi brattynat. I have found a few older documents which might help you revert back.
Just to clarify, when you print from Safari, what are you clicking exactly to start your printing process?
How do I downgrade an iPhone app to a previous version?:

And have your phone set to require a passcode before it can be accessed.
