NEW iPHONE...WOULD YOU EXPECT

Expect updates, fixes, security updates, compatibility problems, and gremlin problems like with any new hi tech computer/phone/camera/software technology as past new releases have taught us, so be patience.
I would imagine everyone who purchases an iphone has been intensely trying to master the operation or selling this new phone on ebay.
I think we realize that anyone will be able to walk in a apple store and buy one off the rack in the up coming weeks after the made crazy of " I HAVE TO HAVE IT " syndrome is over.
So has it been everything everyone thought it would be... or more... or less? The only hold back i have with purchasing a iphone besides the crazy is the phone carrier, in my area verizon rules and I need reliability more than i need cool as far as a phone goes.
In the end practicability rules…

And I'm saying this with a BROKEN PHONE! It worked
perfectly for about 24 hours and then part of the
screen stopped responding to touch. Going in for a
replacement (I hope) today. But in the 24 hours I
got to play with it, I was ecstatic.
My phone will need to be replaced as well since within the first 24 hours one of the pixels near the center of the screen is green whenever it should be black.
I already went into the At&t store, but was told if there is something wrong with the hardware that I must contact Apple directly.
It seems like sending your iPhone to Apple for service is going to be a major inconvenience for anyone who rely's heavily on thier phone. A few days without your phone feels like a few weeks.

Everytime I connect to iTunes the message ' iTunes was interrupted while restoring the contents of the iPhone. would you like to restore the phone again now? With the options cancel, continue restore and delete back-up??

I upgraded to iOS 5 on my 3GS without any issues but now everytime I connect to iTunes the message ' iTunes was interrupted while restoring the contents of the iPhone. would you like to restore the phone again now? with the options of cancel, continue restore and delete back-up. what happens if i click delete back up?

I'm not getting the message anymore!
What I did:
1.- Went to preferences in itunes/ Devices --> erased the corrupted backup (there were two backups)
2.- Upgraded to iOS 5.0.1
Done!
PS: Maybe upgrading solves the problem without erasing the corrupted backup

HT204406 How long would you expect 90gbytes to take when uploading to Match - with a fast internet connection.

After purchasing Match, the software analysed my library and determined that there were 3700 tracks that needed to be upload. How long would you expect this to take - with a fast internet connection?
Thanks

HI tzbikowski,
thanks for your message!
I added 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 to my DNS server list. This has definitely improved things. Pages are loading quicker now, but it's still far from the speed you would expect. Could you elaborate on what you mean when you say that the cisco settings should be correctly propagated onto LAN? When connecting to the Cisco router through the admin interface, it mentions two different DNS servers that the router appears to use (I guess those are provided by my ISP). Are you referring to these servers?
Thanks!

Is anyone having trouble unlocking the new iphone after you lock it?

I was wondering if anyone is having trouble unlocking the new Iphone after you lock it? this has happened to me twice and then I have to reset my phone, I never had this problem with the 4s

Go to expresslane.apple.com and go to itunes/itunes store and billing/redemption and apple ID account billing, and click on send an email or talk to a live chat advisor.. have your order numer, cost, and the name of the item... you'll need to explain in detail. If you send an email they will get back to you within 24 hours. If you chat with a live advisor they will assist you immediately. They are really good at getting you a refund when needed.

Hello my name is jordan arthur, I had an iphone 4s and was stolen and was unable to trace it by searching my iphone, would you track them through your system?

hello my name is jordan arthur, I had an iphone 4s and was stolen and was unable to trace it by searching my iphone, would you track them through your system?

This is a user-to-user technical support forum. You cannot communicate with Apple in this forum. But to answer your question, Apple cannot track a phone for you. Only you can track it, and only if Find my iPhone was enabled on it, and only them if it is powered on and connected to a cellular or WiFi network.

When you buy a new iphone do you charge it until it says 100% charger?

When you first charge a new iphone do you only need to charge until it says 100% charger or should you charge for 12 hours?

There is no set time. You can charge whenever you like, & for as long as you like. You can't overcharge, & charging automatically stops when your battery is full. The Lithium battery in your phone has no memory effect.
Just start using your phone.

What new setup would you get for editing video in iMovie?

Hey gang. I'm upgrading all the electronics in my home and would love some buying and configuring advice. This question could go in the desktop discussion group as well, but the main thing that will tax the next system is family video editing and (temporary) storage. What desktop would you get? iMac or maybe Mac Mini? What camcorder? Canon Vixia ( http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/838768-REG/Canon_M50_HF_M50.html )? I want movies to load quickly and easily, so was thinking of one with SD card media. Time Capsule? (One advisor said to go with another router). And if you were going to get a new TV, what would you get? Flat panel or projector? Yeah, I know: my credit card is gonna be lovin' me. Been saving up, though, and just built all new furniture for my home office, so I can't wait to load it up with nice new gear. Thanks for any advice!

Sorry to correct that Karsten - you are always right normally
From the Apple Store ( http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD033LL/A/time-capsule-3tb?fnode=4d )
Easy wireless networking.
Connect your DSL or cable modem to Time Capsule, then quickly set it up with the easy-to-use AirPort Utility, which is available as download for both Mac OS X and Windows. In minutes, you and up to 50 others can use your Mac computers or PCs to surf the web, stream video, share photos and more — without wires.3
I think that earlier versions fit your description, but the latest does have wireless networking. It works like the Airport Extreme base station.

HT201269 For some reason, the contacts from my old iPhone wont sync into my new iPhone.Could you tell me how to transfer my contacts?

I got an iPhone 5 and i want to transfer my contacts from the iPhone 4 to iPhone 5.i have followed the instructions from here to transfer my stuff onto the new device however my contacts have not been transfered.
can anyone tell me why and how to easily transfer my contacts to iPhone 5 from iPhone 4s.

You are using iTunes or iCloud as backup?
And you are setting your iPhone 5 up from backup?

Is there any way to use icloud to transfer contacts onto a new iphone if you have already gone past the setup assistance guides?

I bought a new iphone today and wanted to transfer contacts over from my old iphone.
The person from the shop skipped the setup assistance screens, so now theres no options to transfer things from icloud
I was wondering if there is any way to do this?
Thanks

There is a way!
Simply do Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings (assuming this was a brand new iPhone).
That will start the whole setup process over.

How unstable would you expect a new broadband conn...

A friend has recently signed up for BTBroadband never having had internet access before.
Hub installed OK a week ago yet the broadband hub light is often seen to go orange and the connection drops. This happens every few hours day and night whether in use or not. One time the light was stuck on orange for a few hours and the restart button had to be pressed.
Should this settle or is there a problem ? Does using the web/downloading etc help or does the line adjust whether used or not ? Would watching something on iplayer or you tube help in that it sends a lot of data ?
Speeds are reasonable at around 12mbs when tested.
Although they live only a few hundred yards from me (same exchange etc) speedtest.net always automatically picks servers that are at the other ends of the country such as Aberdeen or Hull etc.
When I run speedtest.net I always get offered the same server... Manchester.
thanks for any advice

First 7 days after installation I had a solid 4mb even with switching the hub off overnight. Since then I tend to lose internet about 4 times a day even though the lights are blue and lose wireless signal about 10 times a day, still with the blue lights on.
have you tried downloading inssider2 and then run it. This will show the broadcasting networks round about you and their channels including your own. Then enter your router and change your wireless channel to a free or less congested channel. may help your wireless disconnections

I need to know if I have been scammed, this is an email I received after purchasing a new iphone If you can't remember your Apple ID password, or want to change it, use the password retrieval process at My Apple ID. Follow these steps to change your Apple

I have no idea what I am doing? can you read my question?
Thank you

Go here to reset it: https://iforgot.apple.com/iForgot/iForgot.html. After getting the new password, you'll need to sign out, then sign back in on your device using the new password (Settings>iTunes & App Stores, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in).

If I purchased a new 3GS, would you recommend NOT to update to iOS4 ?

Just wondering what your folks' opinions are on this.
Almost seems like the better choice with all the problems the iOS4 is experiencing, no?

Thanks for the input, everybody.
Yes, it would certainly be risky (and probably too much so for my own taste ), I just have to take one look at this forum and everything seems to scream out "do not update!". I'm curious for the supposed update-to-the-update to see if it really irons out some of the bugs.
This would be my first ever smartphone too and I would very much like it to be an iPhone.... but not the 4. I am not going to go down that route anytime soon

Welcome to your new iPhone...but I've already set it up, now what ?

Hi,
I bought my iPhone 5 two days ago and set it up, registered it and loaded some apps, set up my email accounts, etc. all from the phone. Now I went to plug it in to iTunes (11) to back it up and load some pictures, tones, etc. however as soon as I plug it in iTunes shows "Welcome to your new iPhone, would you like to set up this iPHone as a new iPhone or restore all of your information from a previous backup?". I don't want to do either. If I select "Set up as new iPhone" won't it wipe out everything I've already set up and installed ? Is there away around this ?
Thanks

1. Plug your Iphone into your computers. Click ok on the message and let iTunessync
2. Once sync is complete, right click on your phone (it is on the left side of itunes)
3. Once you right click, select "reset warnings". Unplug it and replug to see if it still happens.
I found the solution above on another post forum and it worked for me, but only after I tinked with a few settings. Warning: What I descibe below may only be a solution for those of us who use the icloud backup feature.
I knew the data on my iphone 4 and on icloud was up to date so I went into the iTures preferences/devices and I deleted all of the old backups. With that I restarted iTunes and got a slightly different "Welcome to your new iphone" page. This welcome page only had a "continue" button as an option. After continuing I was given the summary page and was able to sync the phone. After syncing I "reset warnings". Ejected/unpluged then pluged back in and was back in business. No more welcome page.
