My data plan for Iphone 5 is 2gb, at home and I search for data or other things on web, am I charged against my data plan or since its connected to computer via my network connection is there no loss of data

when at home my phone is connected to my computer network,does that mean no data charged against my monthly allotment now at 2gb

If you are connected to wifi at home or elsewhere you shouldn't be using any of your Verizon cellular data. I say shouldn't because there are a number of posts/threads on this forum where customers are reporting glitches with their iPhones and they indicate they are being charged data when on wifi.

I have bought a IPhone 4 from Malaysia, my home button is not working. I want to replace the phone under warranty but all service centres mention that its country specific and I need to get it replaced only at malaysia. Can anyone guide me what to do????

The iPhone warranty is not international and as you purchased in
Malaysia the warranty is only valid in Malaysia
You could try taking to an iPhone Authorised service provider
in India but there have been many similar posts to yours
and I am not aware of them assisting with an iPhone from
outside India

Connecting to Windows Computer via wireless network (Password issue)

I have a wireless network set up at my house, and we all can see each other's shared computers, and the windows machines can connect to each other without a problem.. but my Mac cannot connect to them, but they can connect to me. When I goto "Connect to Server" it asks me for a username and password for the windows machine.. I don't know what to do from here!!! Please help, thanks a bunch

In your Sharing panel, did you go into "Options" and check the box for sharing via SMB?
Then from XP you should be able to reach the Mac via //(ip# or DNS name)/
and you should see the available shares.

My safari keeps crashing while watching movies/TV shows. No error messages. Just disappears. I have to start it up and it'll run for a while and then repeat disappearing. What's up? Apple wants to charge me but this is only since updating to 10.10.1

What is going on? I have never had this problem until I updated to OS 10.10.1. Now apple Tech Support wants to charge me to look into it. It crashes with no error message.

B,
Dag-nabbit! That's what I'm talking about. I installed AdwareMedic and I have every expectation that I'll see great results. I'll have to follow up with a donation. I'm not very savy and you guys have helped me with new confidence. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Now, any possibility someone can help me with backing-up with time machine?? My old external hard drive went south and I had to get a new one. Now I can't get it backed-up because it takes too long. There is to much to back-up for an initial try. My computer ends up shutting down/going to sleep and it can't finished a complete back-up. It seems to want to take about 18-20 hours as best as I can remember. I used to be so anal about my back-ups now I am completely disillusioned.

Use portable hard drive for Time Machine & other things

I recently purchased a 1 TB portable hard drive. I'd like to use it for my Time Machine backups, as well as moving my iTunes library there. Is this an easy change? I'm not super familiar with hard drive set ups. Will I have to create any partitions on the drive?
Thanks!

You're welcome. Make sure your drive is formated as Mac OS Extended (journaled), GUID partition table.
Here's a nice link to use for Time Machine information.
You can partition the drive if you want to organize your various backups. For example you might create a Time Machine partition and Other Files partition. When Time Machine is working, it creates a folder (Backups.backupdb) and places the Time Machine backups in that folder. The rest of the partition is open to add whatever you want. I have multiple partitions on my USB external drive with Time Machine backups separated from other backups.

HT1766 Can I backup my iPhone to my iMac at home AND my Windows Laptop at work ?

New to iPhone. I have it backed up to my iMac at home but would like to back it up to my Windows 7 Laptop at work. Any problems in doing that ? Should I create another Apple ID for the Windows 7 Laptop ?
Thanks,
RJ

You can only sync to one itunes account. IF you try to backup/sync to your work PC it will erase everything on your phone and you'll have nothing to backup to.
Stick to your MAC.
If you need to backup look into icloud http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766

How do I find my missing iPhone 6 if it is dead and i don't have the new thing on it that locates it before it dies?

help i lost my phone and it is almost impossible for me to find it

You can't locate it if it isn't turned on and connected to the Internet. If it were you have to enable Find My Phone to locate it. So, you will not be able to find it.

How can I get firefox 4 to stop prompting for handling of a file type? I have already set "always automatically do this" and checked application preferences. Any other things to try?

I am using FF4 to download some .nzb files. I just want it to open the appropriate application when I click to download the .nzb file. Instead, I get prompted each time. this wasn't a problem on beta FF4. I also verified my application settings. Also, not a problem in Chrome or IE . . .

I finally found a solution to this problem. Simply install the InlineDisposition extension:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/inlinedisposition/
Sites like Binsearch will now load nzb files into Newsbin (or any other usenet reader) automatically without the user getting the "What should Firefox do with this file?" prompt every time after you've already checked "Do this automatically for files like this from now on"

Try unchecking the tones and syncing, then re-checking them and syncing again.

Hi there,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

Drag/Drop playlists between shared PCs via local network.

Prior to Itunes ver 11.0.0.163, I was able to copy thru the drag/drop process a Itunes Home Shared playlist of music files on one computer - to another Home Sharing enabled Itunes playlist, on another computer via local network. How is this done now?

It appears with the release of Itunes ver 11.0.1.02 that this bug has been corrected. Please close out this thread. Thanks.

IPhone $100 credit?!! and Apple Repair Service Scam!!!

To Steve Jobs, the Apple Board and Customers:
While I am happy that Apple is concerned about their customers, (and I will debade that in a moment), I cannot believe that you (Steve and Apple) went ahead with this move. Are you going to give me a $10 a share credit for the stock I bought at $140 that is now at $130 because of this pricing move and this credit?!! It's the same thing! Are all the iPhone buyers now boo-hooing because they had to buy the iPhone and didn't feel it was worth $599? You do realize that you now have set a precedent for all future pricing cuts at Apple, as everyone that has purchased a system that gets a price cut will slam Apple with email complaining they paid too much, etc. I want a credit for the money I have lost due to the discounting of my stock for this rediculous iPhone price cut. You guys blew it!!
Second problem regards a service problem. My 12" powerbook to a drop off the couch a year ago. Still working fine. Decided to get the bottom aluminum case plate replaced, as it is causing too much pressure on the DC inboard recepticle for the power cord. Took it in and got a $600 cost. Ok, way over-priced, but better than new systm! Sent it out. Less than a week later, I got a call from App,e, saying that the service team that inspected my system needed to also replace the DC inboard (fine) and the Hard Drive. The Hard Drive worked fine at the store before sending it off. I qouted the back of the service agreement stating that any damage of the system in Apple's care is Apple's problem, so replace it, but not at my cost. The Apple rep said that this did not qualify, as the "crashed" hard drive was due to the drop. I explained there was not drive problem until Apple shipped it, so get the cost from the shipper insurance. Apple rep said the cost was mine to bear and they would not proceed with the repairs unless I agreed to replacing the DC inboard and HD at an additional cost of $375 (3 times market cost from local Appple authorized repair facility). I continued to question the HD crash. She stated that the repair facility said it crashed, no longer operational. I said I can get these parts for a much better price, send the unit back as is.
Well, unit came back and is FINE!!!! HD works perfectly!!! Ran a diagnostic (I am a certified Sun Microsystems and HP System and server administrator!!!) on the drive and no sector damage or HW problems from the read/write testing. DC inboard is still functional. Apple sent this to Flextronics International. I say, CHECK YOUR SERVICE PROVIDERS APPLE, AS THEY ARE COMMITTING FRAUD ON THE APPLE CUTOMER BASE AND YOU FOR WARRANTY REPAIRS!!! I am not making this up, I have the documents proving this and my system is working right now as I type this. I hope to hear from someone at Apple to contact me on this issue, as the store and 800-MyApple jst softly skirted the issue with, "I'm sure there is a problem with the hard drive and it was not working at the repair facility. It is just on its last life and just happens to be working now." Are you kidding me?!!! I wonder if the New York Time would be interested in this problem?!!!
I also noticed the service agreement states that all replaced parts will be replaced with either new, reconditioned or USED parts. GREAT!!! They would take my drive out, put it in someone elses "crashed" drive and take their drive and put it in my computer and get a huge markup for nothing but labor!!!
I am glad I no longer own Apple shares, and anyone who does, beware of this and other devaluing business decisions or over-sight lacking of Steve Jobs, the Apple board and company!!
Sincerely,
Eric

The messed up thing is that I thought I could use the credit on iTunes over time as I buy music, audiobooks, etc., but noooooo, they won't let you use the credit for either iTunes or for the purchase of an iTunes gift card. Truly an empty promise. I purchased all of the needed iPhone accessories (docks, cases, adaptors) before the credit was announced! Now there is nothing else really relevant to buy from the Apple Store (retail or online) if they aren't going to let you use iTunes. I guess I could return the extra dock I bought and then re-buy it with the credit. Now, where is that receipt and packaging?? The only other things they sell for iPhone that I don't have are the crystal film and another one of those silly little adaptors you have to use for a car cassette device all b/c of the recessed jack on the iPhone. It shouldn't be this way, particularly with Apple.

Can't restore iPhone 5 with iTunes error 3. and my iPad3 and iPhone 5s can't login to Game Center

Hi. This is the first time since I knew apple devices..
I own - iPhone 4 with iOS 5.1
          - iPhone 4 with iOS 7.0.4
          - iPhone 4S with iOS 7.0.4
          - iPhone 5 "out of service"
          - iPhone 5s with iOS 7.0.4
          - iPad 2 with iOS 5.1.1
          - iPad 3 with iOS 7.0.4
Ever since I own my first iPhone 4 I never face unresolved problem like the 2 I'll mention.
1- suddenly my iPhone 5 lost mobile company signal and word searching appears instead but no signal for the hole day so I changed the sim with other provider and since it gave me the same result I searched the web and the seems no solution other than restore.
I did restore and update to iOS 7.0.4 but at the restore takes at the last 1% in the last moment of restore it will take loooong time then gave me error 3. And now for more than a month the iPhone stuck with recovery logo. Almost I tried every trick in the book . Change USB cable, port, PC. PC with other OS . Even freezing the iPhone as I read here noooooo result the same happened again and again.
2- when I update my iPad3 to 7.0.1 everything went normal till one day ago suddenly I found my account logged out of the Game Center by its self and when I wanted to log again it will gave me error of can't connect to server or cocoa error??? Strange thing I can use other account to log in but mine No. Only my account is forbidden in my device while any other account I can login normally. Also my account and Game Center working without any problem in all other devices.
I also tried every trick , change my ID then password then the whole ID domin nothing works. I restart normally then by pressing power/home. I logged off my self from all other devices and tried but also no hope.
So - my account has no problem working with any other device
     - My iPad had no problem with other accounts in Game Center except me. While the same account had no problem with iCloud or email in the same iPad.
I don't and I will not DO restore since it is bizarre problem and I already faced same problem in my iPhone 5s when I restore old backup to iOS 7.0.4 and was the only solution is to set up as NEW iPhone
I saw similar problem but no difinite answer from Apple itself and this is strang but always I was loyal customer and already convinced about 8 of my friends to use iPhone during last 3 years and I expect apple to be loyal to me in the first time I am seeking there actuate direct advice.

"1- suddenly my iPhone 5 lost mobile company signal and word searching appears instead but no signal for the hole day so I changed the sim with other provider and since it gave me the same result I searched the web and the seems no solution other than restore.

I have exactly the same problem with my iPhone 5s!
