New earphones ad on apple site

I am wondering about the new ad for "Apple in ear bud headphones" that are soon to be available for $89.00. There is no mention of viability with the iphone for these headphones, which operate with the Nano, etc. And since it has a mic, it would appear to be an ideal option for the issued headphones that do no offer great sound in conjunction with a mic, which is needed for the iphone......What option is there for quality headphone sound and a necessary iphone mic in the same package ? They are selling millions of iphones aren't they or did I misread the online update at Apple ?
Thanks, Karl.

Hiya scotianleopard
I don't know whether you've bought them, but I was dissapointed.
They come with an excellent choice of 3 sizes of plastic headphone covers which fit into your ear, (Small, Med, large).
I found the medium ones the best fit for me, but they were not a tight fit.
I have gone back to the ordinary Headphones which have a much better bass response.
It it helps, my opinion is Sony are good, Sennhieser better, Ultimate Ears for me are the best. The thicker plastic round the 'ear' end allows you to wrap them usefully round your ears so they dont irritate or fall out on stage - or for me ny the pool!

"New" IE8 Issues with Apple Site?

As a diehard PC user who just recently purchased an iPod Touch, I am spending a lot more time on the Apple site than in the past. I am having nothing but problems with the main Apple site when I access via IE8. The main page takes forever to load up, then mouse clicks go unnoticed or take forever to respond to. Once I get beyond the Apple home page, things start to improve but a couple of odd errors from time to time. For instance, I was accessing this forum via Firefox, then decided that I wanted to do the same side by side with IE8. Obviously, no issues with any Apple site and Firefox whatsoever. On IE8, when I went to "Login", even after logging out on Firefox, it said that the page didn't exist.
If I didn't know better, I would think that Microsoft and Apple don't get along All kidding aside, do I have to spend the rest of my life accessing Apple's Web site via Firefox, or can I use IE8 like I do for every other site that I access (yes, I have no other problems with any other sites that I access via IE8, except for Apple's).
Thanks.

So now you get a feel for how the rest of us live, eh?
I understand how you feel, but Apple clearly doesn't give any consideration to all the hacks required to make Internet Explorer behave. They just code to the web standards that were published about 10 years ago. Having done a moderate amount of web development I can tell you that Firefox and Safari render and behave virtually identically. All version of Internet Explorer require some sort of hacking to make work. I have three separate CSS files I include with my web sites (ie6.css, ie7.css, and ie8.css) that contain distinct sets of hacks to make pages that look perfect in Safari and Firefox look somewhat decent in IE. You would think that the number of hacks would decrease as the IE version number increases, wouldn't you? Sorry. Each version has its own distinct bugs. If there is any web site in the world that shouldn't have to deal with that, it is apple.com. If you don't want to use Firefox, try Safari for Windows.

I bought a Mountain Lion upgrade for $20 off the Apple site. I have four other Macs all under the same ID. How can I share the new OS with other computers. Or can I?

You can share it with other Macs under your control (not your neighbor's). You just need to be logged in under the buying AppleID for updates or to download again.

If you have recently created a new iTunes account, the $1 charge will most likely be for account verification. The money will be refunded shortly.

No, but it's recommended you setup a support profile:

whatsapp how to download?
Go to the App store & purchase it.

It keeps asking me to download new version but takes me back to apple site like its from the beginning - will it erase my current itunes and contents?

On opening my Itunes it asks if I want to download latest version - usually I say yes and away it goes, but lately it redirects me to the Apple site like I am downloading it for the first time and i am scared if I go through with it that it will create a new Itunes and my old one will be lost and all my songs - is this happening to anybody else - will it override your old itunes?? I don't understand why its changed?
Please help, anybody!
Thanks

All should be fine... but... just in case... have you considered backing up your iTunes Library Before doing any Update.../ Upgrade...
Always a Good Idea to have a backup, especially of Music and Photos...

Ipod Touch 3rd Gen - not recognized by computer or itunes. Shows cable pointing to itunes logo. Can't reset it. Doesn't work at all. Have tried all the supposed fixes on the apple site with no luck. It suggested asking other users !

I have a 3rd Generation ipod touch that is not recognized by itunes or my computer. My itunes works with other apple devices I own. I cannot reset the ipod touch and can never get to the screen where it is supposed to show a red battery to turn it off. I can't reset it. Have tried to use the suggestions on the apple site to no avail. Any suggestions ?

From my experience, the only way you're gonna get a PC afflicted with this disease to work with a 5th gen nano is to roll back to an earlier version of iTunes. Those affected have been exhausted by this ongoing issue. To update or not to update? And I always say never update unless you have to, and turn off all that auto update mess!
I have two core2duo lappies running 32b vista. My workflow dictates 32b fyi. One is acer aspire running itunes v 11.1 (.0.126), 5th gen nano was originally formatted and works just fine on this machine to this day. My other is the bigger badder lenovo thinkpad and the 5th gen will NOT mount using any version of itunes past 11.0 (.1.12) Windows mounts it just fine. itunes is not having it. no shirt no shoes no service.
I have both a 4th and 5th gen nano. The 4th gen works great on both machines, I even successfully tested it with the latest version (11.1.5) before subsequent deletion on the thinkpad! Weird huh? I think my next experiment might be to restore my 5th gen w/ a Mac and theeeeen plug it into PC itunez.
I'm at a loss on the thinkpad. Scanned for intruders. Cut the Lenovo bloat. Executed system and reg maintenance. Took down msconfig to a safe mode + itunes level to attempt to resolve possible sw conflicts but to no avail. NO NO NO. Every single dang port, every time on the thinkpad. Has me feeling like others might get the same treatment by the next itunes update. :|
So in summary for me:
5th gen nano and thinkpad are a NoGo on 11.1^ last working version for me = 11.0.1
5th gen nano is working on an acer aspire 11.1.0 but no way in the world am I updating
4th gen nano is kicking 5th gen nano's @zz so what would make me want to buy a new ipod?

Why do the new earphones not work with 1st Generation iPod touch?

Does the 1st generation iPod touch not "recognise" [recognize if you are American] these functions? I am talking about the microphone and the button on the new earphones.

Then why don't apple make ear phones with microphone which the 1st gen itouch will recognised...
Because the Touch is primarily a music player, that is what I purchased and I'm quite satisfied with it as it is.
I'm so fed up of the way Apple Market...
What are their plans for their consumers... to
to keep buying new Ipods?!?!?!
Err...Yes! Welcome to the real world.
3G Iphone was released shortly after the Iphone...
why couldnt they make us wait longer...and get the 3G
You still don't understand this commercial world do you?
same with Ipod Touch... yes i Understand new Gen ipods...would have better features...
Let's all wait a hundred years when they bring out the the brain implants...
But hey wats up with making us fall with Apple...we like the designs, the features...but why then bring in new ones that apple know will not let our old ipods adapt to it.
You like the design, you buy it, enjoy what you have and don't get so jealous.
Sick of Apple... they do it on purpose... I guarantee...
No way?!
the new Iphone to realease next year....would be Iphone 8.0 mega pixels camera video recording....either way...they would make their customers regret for buying their old Iphones and Ipods...
If so, then I might buy one, but then I wouldn't moan if a better one was released six months later.
4 now, do something about the new ear head phones....cos apart of app store and applications...we want to be ablt to use microphones...to communicate on social networking...and voice memos...
This maybe because the hardware is simply incompatible, they cannot cover every eventuality, had they done so the Touch would have been more expensive and I would not have bought one.
Technology moves on, fact. I you don't feel Apple are playing fair then just avoid their products, that'll learn 'em.
By the way, if you want Apple to hear your thoughts go here - [Feedback|http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html]
They do not officially monitor this board.

I want to install a hp laserjet pro cp1525nw with ox mountain lion . I dowload the drivers in the apple site but when i try to add a printer , my mac book air do not start the research. nothing happen . Can you help me?

I want to install a printer hp laser pro cp1525nw on my macbook air with mountain lion 10.8.2 . I download the drivers from the apple site and install them . I resart the macbook . I just can not add a new printer . the computer dos not start a research
Can you help me?

hi . I had the simalar problems of my HP b209a-m printer not being seen on my wireless network> I could not add the printer and could not get the printer to join my network, I found this post at HP discussion and it worked!
Each printer has different options/settings but it seems like the general idea should work ok if you can reset printer back to factory settings and find Printer IP Adress.
This is for HP printers
1. On the printer navigate to the Wireless or Network menu.
2. Select Restore Defaults.
3. On your computer look for a wireless network named 'hpsetup' and connect to it.
4. Print a Wireless Network Test from the front of the printer to see its IP address. (on my b209a-m Printer the IP info was found by pressing the Wireless Icon)
5. Type the IP address into the address bar of a web browser to see the printer's internal settings.
6. Click on the Network tab and look for the Wireless Setup Wizard and run it.
7. The Passphrase is the password you use on your wireless connection.
8. Now change the network name on your computer back to your wireless network.
The printer will now be connected to your network. With your the computer backyour wireless network network, you can re-add the printer from System Preferences.
Hope this works--- it did for me.

If i associate my apple id with another email will i lose my icloud data or i will still be able to access all my stored data with the new linked to my apple id email address?

hi there
if i associate my apple id with another email will i lose my icloud data or i will still be able to access all my stored data with the new linked to my apple id email address?
i mean i am not signing up for a new account, just changing my old id primary email which is my apple id login into account.
in other words, www.icloud.com will recognize that it is still me if i login on the site? will i be able to see there all my stored information?
and if i change my password, does it automatically changes the @icloud.com password which should be the same as my apple id pass?
thanks

After opening the email it shoud of had you enter the Apple ID and password. Using certian web browser's can cause errors. You can adjust securty settings (big pain) or you use another browser. Using Firefox or Safari should do the trick.
Let me know if using Firefox or Safari resolved it.

i have an ipad2 and cannot find how to upgrade to ios 6, despite visiting apple site, itunes etc. Apple is normally intuitive but this is a real labarynth?

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

Does the iphone 4s ever sell out on the apple site?

Buying one off the apple site on wednesday, just to make sure it wont be sold out or anything? Sorry im completely new to this kind of thing!

Apple's online stores always state availability, with an expected ship date. If no longer available, the item will either state such or simply not be listed.

Apple Site Videos appear black, but auido OK

I don't know what's going on. This is a new iMac (purchased from apple Sept '07)
It was working fine for while, now when I try to watch ANY video on apples site, the video is black and the audio is fine. (this includes tutorials, guides, and ads)
I've tried using safari, and firefox, I've rebooted the computer and check some settings. Can any one help?

Yes, I've installed all the quicktime updates. (even 7.4) That may have cause the problem. Maybe it's only quicktime videos on Apples site that I'm having a problem with. (Most other sites are using flash based players)
I don't want to do a full system refresh (besides being a mac newbie, that's more work) is there another way around it. I don't mind removing quicktime, finding older versions and trying that. Do you think that might work. Even by removing some of the system library files. (I may be a mac newbie, but I was an advance PC guy for years, that finally got tired of all the garbage and just wanted something that worked.)
Thanks

Do New Earphones work with the 2nd Gen Shuffle?

So my dog chewed up my 2nd Gen Ipod Shuffle earphones and I wanted to replace them. When I went to the the apple online store they are only selling the new earphones for the 3rd Gen Shuffle, that has a remote and a mic. It only says it supports the 3rd Gen Shuffle. Would I still be able to hear music on the new earphones? I don't really care about the remote and mic capabilities.
Here's the link to the 3rd Gen Earphones:
