Not offering 6.1.6 security update for devices that can be updated to ios7 is unethical

As a loyal apple customer for 25 years I'm extremely disappointed that Apple is refusing to offer the security update for a major security flaw for those using newer hardware who don't want to otherwise want to update to ios7. Forcing me to update to ios7 to have a secure phone is beyond unethical. Shame on you Apple.

Apple aren't here, so shaming them here is pointless.
For devices that support iOS 7 the fix is in iOS 7.0.6. For devices that only support iOS 7 the fix is in iOS 6.1.6
It's quite simple to understand. Apple always encourages people to use the latest OS their device supports. I doubt that is going to change.
It's your choice to remain on iOS 6 against Apple's advice. Therefore you accept the consequences of your actions.
You want the fix? Then you use the version of iOS for your device that contains it.
Good luck with your class action lawsuit!!!! Haha!

Looking for devices that can perform straight forward I/Q demodulation process

Hi guys,
I am looking for a high speed NI board that can perform the quadrature demodulation (for a 20 MHz signal), I have looked through the web but so far I can only find 5620, 5660 and 5142.
cos(wt) ----> Device under Test (DUT) -----> Acos(wt + theta)
cos(wt) is the original tranmitting signal (20 MHz). After it is passed through the DUT, amplitude change (A) and phase shift (theta) is then introduced into the output signal (the frequency still remains the same.) The purpose of this setup is to measure the amplitude change and phase shift, relative to the original signal.
Thus I need a simple I/Q demodulation board that can perform this job. Is there any NI board that one can recommend? Or is there a board that can generate the driving signal and do the IQ domodulation at the same time? I think 5620, 5660 and 5142 can only perform I/Q demodulation process...
Thanks for the help!

Some of my earliest photos are not showing on my phone after updating to iOS7. They can be seen in the app "over" which allows for art and lettering to be placed on a photo but I can not find an album for photos before 2012.

Some of my earliest photos are not showing on my phone5 after updating to iOS7. They can be seen in the app "over" which allows for art and lettering to be placed on a photo but I cannot find an album or year for photos before 2012 (in the photo app). The iphone says the photo content is there when I check in "about" under general in settings. So the pictures seem to be somewhere but I just can't access from from the photo app. Any suggestions. I also know that they were there before the iOS7 upgrade as I was looking for a pre 2012 picture last week and it we there.

IMessage is not working on my iPad since updating to ios7.0.6

iMessage is not working on my iPad since updating to ios7.0.6
It worked well before doing the latest update.
iMessage on My iPhone 4 works fine after doing the same update.
Have done all the usual things plugging into computer, complete shut down and reboot, nothing has worked.
It keeps asking for password for Apple ID, I know I am entering the correct ID, check network is also being displayed.
Nothing wrong with my network either, other iPads and iPhones are working fine on the same network.
Would like this fixed ASAP.
Thanks

If your account is disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on your iPhone and iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Storeand then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it.
For your security questions, if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then the steps half-way down this page will give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 (you can also try this link if you can't get your account enabled via the above)
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

No worries. Often after iTunes updates you have to reconnect your device in order for iTunes to see it. Happens to me all the time!

Go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings. This will return it to its new out of the box condition. Go through the setup screens again and you will be given the option to restore from a previous iTunes or iCloud backup (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109).

My iPod was stolen today around 12 o'clock today and I don't have a device that can help me tract it so please app can you locate my iPod please. Where I had it last before someone stole it from me was somewhere around Compton but not there. Email or call

Apple hi my ipo was stolen today and I had it or 4 to 5 years I jut or new music on it and I didn't sync it to my conputer in a long time so I won't have slot of things please if you can lock it and tell them the their to cally number or activation location for my because I don't have a backup new device that can help me sorry if there are slot of mistakes back connection oh and if you could report in in for me a lock it or what not. Also if you can save my things then delete it from that device so they don't do anything that I can't take back thank you and please help me. Oh and the iPod is a 4th generation iPod if they are trying to sell it with a purple case it crashes alot and I have cloud on it. My personal info and pics are in it and they are probably gonna blakmail me eventhough I don't know them please report this in for me.

If you have a iCloud account set up you may be able to disable it, I'm not entirely sure about the earlier iPods. Even a poor thief will have already changed your settings. You can report it as stolen and change all passwords associated with this iPod to prevent a thief from accessing your accounts, computer, etc. As for the blackmail stuff, be careful what you have on your devices! Nothing is that secure. Good luck.

Most of my movies are not showing up in my library or my devices. what can I do?

Out of all the movies Ive purchased only 4 or so are showing up in my library and same with my ipad which used to display all my movies even if they were not downloaded onto my ipad. how do I fix this?

Hey there La Reveuse,
It sounds like your iOS devices and computers are not showing your Movie purchases from iTunes anymore that are not downloaded to them. On your iOS devices you can check to see if the option to show all your movies is enabled in Settings > Videos. On your computer(s) this option is labeled Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases in its preferences.
iTunes 11 for Mac: iTunes Store preferences
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12263
or
iTunes 11 for Windows: iTunes Store preferences

I if this is enabled on your devices, I would next check to see if the purchases have been hidden with this article:

looking for app that can connect iPhone / Ipad to generic bluetooth camera

I doubt that you will find one. I have not heard of BT cameras.

Yesterday I was able to take photos but around 9pm last night my rear camera stop working. I have reseted my phone and have also restored it and the camera still is not working. Also I have deleted all apps that can have access to the camera.

Also I have deleted all apps that can have access to the camera and i have updated the new IOS.What else should I do ? Is this a hardware problem?

Looks like a hardware issue that will have to be taken to a store

6 days in and being billed for calls that can't ha...

I opened up my relationship with BT on 16th December 2013. The engineer called and set up my wifi, TV and phone line. I didn't buy a phone until Friday 20th December and when I plugged it into the land line, it didn't work and BT confirmed that there was a fault at the exchange. I then look at my first charges on line and see that there have been 2 calls charged to my line on Tue 21st Dec and one on Wed 22nd Dec which is impossible as I didn't have a phone until Friday 20th. The billing department can't tell me why this has happened. So the position I'm now in is that the engineer can't attend to my issue at the exchange until 27th Dec and I don't have confidence in the BT billing system until BT tell me why I have been billed for calls that can't have been made from my number.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Possibly your line is crossed with another one, and they made the calls. Keep a note of the numbers that have been called, and hopefully you can sort it out with BT when your line is working.
If you call your number using a mobile, see who answers the call, as they would be the ones using your line, and you can ask them who they are, and what they think their number is, as they may be unaware of a fault.
There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.
