Now that the iPhone is subsidized...
Now that the iPhone 3G is subsidized by AT&T does this mean for any future iPhone releases that you are going to have to pay the full price to change phones (i.e. not the $199/$299 price but rather $600) like with any other AT&T phone that they sell?
The phone really isn't subsidized in the traditional sense...in other words, you can't pay more for the iPhone if you buy it without a plan, because that's not an option. A plan is required regardless. There is no subsidized/non subsidized price - they simply dropped the price.

How much does it cost to fix a broken screen on the iPhone 4 now that the iPhone 5 was released?
I dropped my iPhone 4 (not 4S) and both the front and back screens cracked. I recently went to apple and try told me it would cost $149 to replace the phone. Now that the iPhone 5 came out, has the price to replace my phone lowered at all? (I know it lowered from $199 with the release of the iPhone 4S). Thanks.
What about the price of replacing the iPhone 4S due to accidental damage. Has that gone down at all since the iPhone 5 release?

i tried to up date my i phone 4 to iOS 5 then it wiped my phone and now it tells me to connect to iTunes and that the iPhone is in recovery mode and when i connect it goes to preparing to install to iPhone but never goes any further how do i restore the phone
by reset option do you mean the DFU restore? worked for me, have you tried that?
if not - hold the lock and home button until the power down bar comes up. then hold the lock button for ten seconds - next continue to hold the lock button and press the home button for ten seconds - next release the lock button and hold the home button for 10 seconds. this should be done with the phone tethered. If done right and your itunes is configured as such, the phone will reload the drivers and start up itunes, and then prompt for a restore/update. -
i had purchased iphone 6 from the online store and i had peid the full amount by using my cc , i had noticed now that the order get cancelled as its out of quantity , could you please assist me to refund my money back to my cc !!
I am going through the same process! It is a nightmare doing anything with adobe. They make it as difficult as possible to get a refund and keep asking me if i want anothe program instead of a refund. They are making me jump through all kinds of hoops to get the refund and refuse to call me. They have ZERO customer service and the only reason they stay in business is because they have no real competitors. It's a shame, but I suggest you reprot them to the Better Business Bureau. I did.

On my iPhone 4s, I sent a picture via email and asked to size it down. However, it seems now that the pic stored on my iphone is now forever the smaller size which is not suitable for printing. Is there any way to get the larger size back?
sure pretty simple. make a backup of your current settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
then import pics to computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
you may need to save pics to camera roll first
then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes

I have bought an iPhone 4 pcs. Restore've already made it to version 5.1.1. Factors unlock the iPhone. But now that the previous owner Khahd Apple ID to be active.
If the phone was previously updated to IOS 7 and find my iPhone was added, your phone has the activation lock on it and can only be unlocked by the Apple ID used to stet up the phone.

Will an iphone 4 that was originally purchased from apple directly as a factory unlocked phone remain unlocked or will it have now locked to the network it was used on. I've been told by carphone warehouse that the iphone will lock to first sim used in it (in this case Orange) and will need to be unlocked again. Just wanted the view of anybody who knows about this for sure. Thanks
If you bought it directly from Apple as unlocked it should be unlocked for all networks. There are phones sold that WILL lock to the first carrier it is used with, but this does not apply to phones where the receipt says "unlocked".
I have not had good experiences with Carphone Warehouse. -

message that "The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (3194)."
How can I fix it?Usually that means the iPhone was hacked to unlock it from the original
carrier .
Updating the operating system locks it back to that original carrier
You could try this

However if the iPhone was hacked it is probably a paper weight now
and as this is an Apple hosted forum you can get no further help here -
On a BMI flight yesterday, the 4th jan 2012,they informed us that the iphone could no longer be used on the plane even in airplane mode becase of a CAA ruling. Is this true? I t lead to a boring flight without my podcasts.

I believe airlines can interpret as they see fit.See underlined comment below!

General Policy: Use of non-Transmitting PEDs
Whilst the use of all PEDs is prohibited during the taxi, take-off and landing phases of flight, (when the passenger seat belt sign is on), use of PEDs that only produce spurious emissions are often permitted during the cruise phase of flight. However, the aircraft crew may require PED use to be suspended at any time, and such a request must be obeyed. Such a case might be if the crew suspects that the PED use is the cause of interference with aircraft systems.
Examples of PEDs that might be permitted to be used during the cruise phase of flight includes:
laptop computers, PDAs and MP3 players (as long as they do not include wireless transmitting functions); and
electronic games, DVD players, CD players, cassette players, video or "still" cameras and calculators.
The use of some mobile phones or PDAs is also permitted by some airlines as long as they are used in the "flight safe" mode only, and this mode is enabled before the PED is turned off before the start of the flight, so that it is already within the “flight safe” mode when it is turned back on in the permitted phase of flight.The restriction on the use of PEDs applies to devices carried onboard by the passenger or provided to the passenger by the crew. It does not apply to time measuring equipment (watches etc.) or implanted medical devices (pacemakers etc.). Any medical devices that include a monitoring feature that includes a transmitting function to a medical centre should have this transmitting feature switched off during the flight – see general policy on use of transmitting PEDs.
General Policy: Use of Transmitting PEDs
The use of PEDs that intentionally transmit for the purposes of data transfer or vocal communication is generally prohibited for the duration of the flight. This is due to the level of EM Radiation generated during the communication process being greater than that caused by the PEDs' spurious emissions, which are normally tolerated.Examples of intentionally transmitting PEDs that are generally prohibited are:
mobile phones, personal computer equipment with wireless wide, local or personal area network (WWAN, WLAN or WPAN) devices, radio transmitters and remote control equipment (which may include some toys).
Some airlines may accept the use of low power devices conforming to the Bluetooth standard during the cruise phase of flight. The transmissions of these have been shown to be no greater than the host PED's spurious emissions.
Some aircraft are equipped with WiFi type Wireless Local Area Networks. In such cases, compatible devices may be used during the cruise phase of flight. Use is not permitted on aircraft not equipped with this feature.
Some aircraft are now equipped to enable mobile phones to be used. Details can be found in the section on Mobile phones. On all aircraft not equipped with these systems, use of mobile phones is prohibited for the entire duration of the flight. -
I have a 16 GB iPhone 4S. Tonight when I went to sync with my iTunes on my MacPro, I received an error message that the iPhone could not be sync'ed because it needed 6.25 GB more space. I still have 2.5 GB free. I sync'ed last night fine. How could I need 8.75 GB (6.25 +2.5) more space on a 16GB iPhone. I have added nothing but audio podcasts to my iTunes library on my Mac in the last two days and I have not change the sync setting on my iPhone. Something has gone haywire. Any ideas. Mahalo, Oahu Guy
I resolved this after some analysis. Turnes out that iTunes was not recognizing that my music was already installed on my iPhone, so when I tried to sync, iTunes was attempting to load all my music a second time, and there was not enough room on my iPhone for that. I did a restore from backup today and this appears to have resolved the problem. I initiatied an iTunes sync and it worked fine. Not sure where the glitch was. Could have been in the latest update of the iTunes software. Not sure. Anyway, I'm good now.

Does anyone else feel that the iPhone is sluggish after update 1.1.1?
Is it just me or does anyone else feel that the iPhone feels more sluggish after update 1.1.1? I haven't unlocked or hacked the phone in any way and so it must be due to the update. I thought that the sluggish behavior could be due to a recent update and so I reset the phone. But I still feel that the iPhone has lost that responsiveness that it used to have before. Any one else experiencing this?
Yes, without question I thought typing, especially, was sluggish at first. However, after a day it has seemed to speed up and now, I'd say, is back to original performance, or close to it.
Also, I have lots of contacts (2500), and the phone has been very slow to make the first identification of email addresses when I start typing. Specifically, it freezes for several seconds after the first letter is typed. However, I believe that process is a bit faster after this update.

Any Problems Now that the Cold Weather is Here
Just trying to find out if anyone is having any problems with their iPhone now that the cold weather is setting in.
I thought there might be issues with the touch screen or other problems related to running the applications since its cold. I heard some issues with screen cracking in the cold.
Today it was the first real cold day in Philadelphia, and for the first time ever for me after four years of using an iPod (mini, classic and nano) that I had a skipping incident. Also, for the first time since updating to 1.1.1 (now 1.1.2), Safari kept crashing when the iPod was playing music.
Just curious if anyone has issues about cold weather use.
Thanks.Wow! I would think the claws on the "bear" fingers would scratch the screen for sure!
I would almost guarantee that the cold weather will run your battery down faster than usual. Thats what happens to batteries in the cold. The operating conditions for the iPhone are also stated as follows:
Environmental requirements
Operating temperature: 32° to 95° F (0° to 35° C)
Nonoperating temperature: -4° to 113° F (-20° to 45° C)
Relative humidity: 5% to 95% noncondensing
Maximum operating altitude: 10,000 feet (3000 m)
So I would recommend against pushing your luck in the freezing cold or you could have a nicely voided warranty and a broken iPhone.
