  • Look for official APPLE statement on future rSAP Bluetooth profile support

    Hi,
    My previous post was considered as "speculative" by the moderators (I still do not see what were the speculations but, OK, I let go)...
    Therefore, I'll try to be still more factual:
    _Fact 1_: current firmware of iPhone 3G does not support rSAP Bluetooth profile.
    _Fact 2_: my car needs my phone to support rSAP Bluetooth profile for being able to use the built-in handsfree kit.
    _Fact 3_: I cannot find anywhere an official statement from APPLE about this rSAP Bluetooth profile.
    _My question_: can someone give me a link to such an official statement?
    (I hope this will be considered as factual enough...

    Hello. I know this is not exactly what you are looking for. But the link below is a document that informs you about current BT Profile that is used.
    If you would like Apple to know about other BT Profiles needed to work with your car. Feel free to contact Apple via the feedback page below.

  • Does anyone know of an official Apple document that states what the supported characters are for the firmware security for all Intel based Macs?

    Same question for user account passwords on 10.8 and later: Is there an official Apple document stating the valid characters for a user's local password?
    The reason that I'm asking is that years ago on the Open Firmware Macs you couldn't use the capital letter "U" in the firmware password. Then there were issues on 10.5 when the user's password was changed and started with the '$' character

    The only documentation that Apple's provided on securiy ended with Snow Leopard. Peruse these. For Lion and beyond, all I can offer are these, but I don't know if they'll answer the question. Finally, contact Apple's Express Lane and see what they say.
    UPDATE: Found this which states: Use a secure password that contains both numerals and letters in the first eight characters.

  • Official Apple Unlocked iPhone, not supported by Apple

    Whilst I was travelling in South East Asia, I needed to purchase a new phone.
    I found a supplier of iPhones in Thailand that sold me an Official Apple Unlocked iPhone, it turned out to be an Italian iPhone, again an official Apple one.
    I needed an unlocked phone that I could use in many different countries, using local SIM cards.
    I have been very happy with the phone, it needed updating to v2 and this did not cause any problems.
    I was just speaking with AppleCare about an unrelated issue. at the end of the conversation I mentioned that the only thing about the iPhone that was disappointing about the iPhone was the volume of the speaker phone. The agent took the serial number of the iPhone and put me through to iPhone support.
    The iPhone agent then took the serial number again and told me that I had an Italian iPhone, because it was bought in Thailand, support was only available through Thailand, she also told me that using a SIM card other than that of an official carrier voided the warranty.
    All this seems a bit restrictive, for people in my position, to buy an Official Apple product and then be denied support defeats the object of sourcing an unlocked product in the first place. I can understand why Apple refuse to support iPhones that are unofficially unlocked, but to deny support for an official product seems grossly unfair.
    Anyone else had problems getting Apple to support their own products, any ideas how this situation can be resolved?
    Jeremy

    Apple clearly states that an iPhone is supported only in the country in which is was officially distributed. If you purchased an Italian-distributed iPhone in Thailand, it was imported and sold against Apple's terms and contracts and so you may indeed have problems getting it serviced since it will not show as being sold in the correct country. Using a SIM from another carrier is also unsupported. The only places in Thailand where can purchase an iPhone that will be supported by Apple in that country are True Move stores or Apple Premium Resellers. See:
    http://www.apple.com/asia/iphone/buy/#th
    for links to approved locations. Any such iPhone sold will be supported only in Thailand.
    At this point you're probably stuck since you have an unofficially-sold iPhone. Your best route will be to sell your current iPhone and purchase one from an official dealer in your country of residence. Do not buy one in any other country (unless you'll be in that country for months or years), whether it's unlocked or carrier-locked, or you'll have the same problem.

  • Official Apple Composite Cable DOESN'T WORK with iPhone 3GS firmware 3.1.2

    I've tried everything and I cannot make the official apple composite cable (MB129LL/B) work with my iPhone 3GS 3.1.2.
    I get no video output AND no sound as if the cable is simply not made for my 3GS
    What do need to do to get composite video output on my 3GS 3.1.2????

    "The 3GS will not work with a Composite cable. It will only work with a Component cable. See here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1454"
    I have had no luck with getting the component cables to work with my 3GS. They are the Apple branded cables, not some knockoff. I would be angry if I needed to buy the universal dock to get them to work. Per some of the forums I've read, it is not needed. Also, from all the reading I've done on the TV out feature in this forum and others, it appears to be a hit or miss whether it works or not.

    Hi my iphone 5s is not working. I bought it in New York on July. Im from Argentina and here isnt a place official Apple. Help!

    Apple does not have an international warranty.  If the phone was purchased in the US, it must be serviced in the US, in warranty or out of warranty.  Also, Apple will not accept international shipments...the phone must be physically returned to an Apple store in the US or mailed from within the US.

  • I live in Saudi Arabia and intend to buy an iPhone 5 (unlocked version) from U.K. I want to know, would it be possible to claim warranty from the local network operator which is the official Apple iPhone seller i.e. Mobily. Would they repair/replace ?

    You would need to return to U.K. for warranty service. The iPhone warranty is not international.

  • HT1349 In Miami 2 wks ago I purchased iMac 21.5 desktop. Several employees confirmed official apple reseller in Ecuador, Now Im here & there is none. ??so my concerns about purchasing a desktop having tech service-repair should not concern me.

    After purchasing extended warranty as well, I now find myself with a very non portable computer in a country in South America that has no backup tech support for my new unit.  I would not have purchased this model had I  not venn told by serveral salesmen and one teacher that there was an official Apple Reseller in Ecuador so I had back up for technical or repair issues.
    Now that I am already in Ecuador, returning or exchanging the unit is impossibe, and I have no technical back up. I am furious, and need to know who at Apple will take responsibility for the misleading info given to me be several Apple experts at the company Apple Store ibn Miami

    There are a number of authorized Apple resellers and service centers in Ecuador:

    So there appears to have been no misleading information given to you.

  • I have leopard 10.5.8 can i download online snow leopard from the official apple store ?

    Hi there! I have Mac OSX 10.5.8. I really need mac osx snow leopard!!! 3 days ago a shop assistant in the offical apple shop said that i can dowload snow leopard from official apple site ? Can i? How?

    No. Snow Leopard comes on a DVD which you can buy from the Apple Online store. However, I can't find a store for Russia. Do you have access to Amazon? They're available from there also (usually). Around €30, R1250.

  • My iphone will not recognize any usb cables. I have tried 3 official apple ones and 2 different plugs. Ive tried plugging it into my laptop but will not find the phone. it has had problems since i updated my ios. Battery has been replaced.

    I have tried 3 official apple ones and 2 different plugs. Ive tried plugging it into my laptop but will not find the phone. it has had problems since i updated my ios. Battery has been replaced. Any suggestions would be fantastic

    test if it charges with an ac charger
    test if it's detected by another computer
    if it's no to both then likely the connector is broken
    if it's yes to both thne it's likely your computers itunes install which is the problem

    Because it is more far-reaching than just turning the phone off and back on, it completely takes out anything in volatile memory, etc. I do reset mine if I notice problems such as no email coming in, text message issues, etc. but the same thing could probably be accomplished by just turning the phone off and on in your case.
    Thanks deggie, I think I get it now. Volatile memory (I had to look it up!) is memory that is lost on loss of power, so it's as you say... I'm not achieving anything on a normally functioning iPhone as on-off achieves the same result!... Thanks

  • Official Apple reseller says "iPhone 5s's camera is much worse than the other"

    Hi Apple support and fans,
    I am writing to ask you and maybe get Apple's attention to what happened to me. I bought an iPhone 5s 8 days ago. I bought it from official Apple reseller in Warsaw, the capital city of Poland. And then my adventures began.
    First, the plug is British, not Polish, because as the reseller said "we have some iPhone not from official distribution, but it will work". Because I needed to buy an iPhone5s fast, I accepted that. However, the question is still there - is it legal to sell British iPhones "from unofficial distribution channel" in Poland?
    Second, and more important, my iPhone 5s makes horrible blurred pictures. I mean they are really blurred... I read all the posts on this forum and I tried everything. Finally I decided to visit the reseller and here is what their representative said: "These pictures are totally fine. They are blurred, as this is not a professional camera". Wow! What a discovery. I know that this is not a professional camera, but I know how photos from an iPhone (4 and 4s) might look like. So I replied that something is strange and I wanted to give my iPhone back to check it (under warranty). The representative replied: "We will not take it, and I'm telling you the pictures are all fine. The camera in iPhone 5s is much worse than it was in iPhone 4s and hence the blurred photos. Just live with that". 
    And now my questions:
    1. Is it true that the pictures must be blurred in iPhone 5s, just because it works so? I can't bvelieve it.
    2. Isn't the fact that they sell iPhones from "unofficial channels" the reason why they don't want to take the iPhone under warranty?
    If anyone from Apple wants to take a closer look at this issue and maybe discover some "strange" actions from Polish official Apple reseller, I'm open to provide you much more details on the purchase, the store location, etc.
    Looking forward to hearing from you,
    Kuba

    iPhones are ONLY sold by Carriers and Apple an Apple reseller is unlikely to be authorised for iPhones and certainly would not sell an iphone with a foreign plug
    You have clearly purchased a grey import a genuine Polish sourced iPhone sold by a legitimate iPhone reseller would have the correct plug for the Country
    Big issue you have is warranty you need to take to an Apple authorised repairer

    luckily as long as iPhone came from UK you do have warranty ,EU is one "country" for Apple warranty purposes
