Orded IP4, but question for forum vets

My wife and I have a 3G and I have ordered a 4 for both of us. It's one of the "ships by July 14th" orders. We are both very excited and anxious to get it, but are also quite troubled by what I read on these boards and various others blogs/sites about it's various issues.
I'm not asking if I should cancel my order, I would like to know if after every launch the "issues" were this great? I'm sure each release had it's problems, and I wasn't checking the boards regularly until now. Is it because 1.7mill people ordered these and there are just that many more out there now than previous releases, or maybe expectations have gotten so high since each phone was so great?
I'm sure (hope anyway) some fixes are forthcoming and some bashing will stop, but I'm curious if this release is par for the course, but a bit 'amped up', or not. I know more people will complain than compliment, but after looking through some history and other discussions for other hardware, I don't see as much animosity as I have here.
Thanks,
Anxiously Waiting

Yes every time there is a release there are many problems. I haven't had one problem that I can think of, I love the iPhone 4. I hate to say for all the people that are having problems but I haven't had a iPhone that gets better reception and download speed are close to double. The video and camera blow away the 3GS and the screen is so easy to read small type now.
If you have these reception issues I would get Zagg film for the sides of the phone and make sure it crosses the breaks in the metal. You can't even see the clear Zagg unless you look for it. I think it will solve the problem and you can enjoy your phone and not worry about when Apple will have a fix. Later down the road you can exchange it when things calm down and stock of new iPhones is up if the problem still occur on bare metal. If 2% of phones had manufacturing problems it would be over 30,000 phones and that's around average or below. So you can imagine how many people are having problems.
I think it's overblown but I don't doubt people are having major connection problems and I also believe some are so obsessed with the situation if a bar drops they have a fit and just try to trash the iPhone when some are having great experiences. It's only been a week and I'm sure there are so many different reports Apple is having a problem figuring out a solution that will fix all.

  • Question for Forum Hosts

    Sorry, this is a question for you about how this forum works or what options I am supposed to use, versus being a new problem... I couldn't find a "Contact Us" link to get this question to you any other way.
    I posted a message (marked as a question), "Wireless-G Card causes Tecra 730CDT to Hang," on February 14th. I got a reply from "Quad" and I then replied to that reply (and marked it "still not answered"). The now 3-part message was on the main forum list for about 1/2 day and then it disappeared from it completely. I can do a search and find the original message and the 2 replies, but they are not on the main list.
    I can't figure out why it is not on the main forum list. Did I do or say something wrong so it was dropped from the list? Did I fail to do some step or check some box that is required before it can return to the list?
    I really would like the original message and replies back on the main forum list, as I still have the same problem and am hoping someone will see it and provide a solution to my problem. Please advise.
    Thanks,
    [email protected]

    Hi Ivan,
    First, thank you very much for clearing up what I thought was a mystery of my disappearing posting. Basically, I thought my problem belonged in the TE and Tecra Series forum (what I thought of as the "main page") and was dismayed when I couldn't find it in there. Yes, the Wireless Board is definitely the more appropriate spot.
    Secondly, thank you too for your opinion on my attempt at jamming Wireless-G onto my old laptop. I am seeing that you and Quad must be correct... the fact that the 730CDT works so well with my 10/100 wired card made me feel it could handle everything.
    I have to admit I have never tried slower Wireless-B. Technology has moved so fast and prices have dropped so much that it was cheaper to buy a brand new boxed kit (router and card) for Wireless-G than it was to buy an old Wireless-B set up... I got caught up in getting the best deal instead of making the best technology match.
    I will close this question on "where's my posting?" but will leave the original "730CDT Hang" posting alive for awhile longer.
    Many thanks again,
    Wayne

  • Question for Forum Administrator

    I'm having a few login problems with this forum. For instance, I have to login every time I visit the forum, the forum doesn't remember me as being other than a guest when I want to post. I also have to use a slightly different login name than my profile name to get in.
    Thirdly, I can't access My Questions on the right side of the page. I get this:
    500 nextPageStart is undefined.
    How can I get this stuff fixed? If this isn't the right place to post this stuff please guide me where to go. Thanks!

    Hi GothBoy, Things like this need to be posted and replied to in the Feedback about Discussions forum. Your post will not be addressed in this forum. Thanks!

  • General question for Forum re: e-mail updates

    Is anyone else receiving updates to this Forum in your e-mail, and if so, have you started to see the line-break character string scattered throughout the body of the e-mails? That's a left arrow, the characters "br", a slash, then a right arrow. This started happening to me on Saturday. My Friday stuff is fine, but starting with Saturday it's cluttered with < br / > every place there should be a line break...

    Yes, it's a bug in the system. The only known cure is to log out and log back in again. It usually clears up the problem.

  • Hi there how are you guys out there of this forum? I got a question for y'a

    Hi there how are you guys out there of this forum? I got a question for y’all
    I wanted to know how I could record different folders using iTunes
    Cause when recorded 2000 thongs on the DVD
    There were 2000 songs to go through
    So I really wanted to have had folders and then the music recorded inside them
    So I could get right to where I wanted real quickly
    Could anyone please teach me how to do that real quickly?
    Can we do it with iTunes?
    I know we can do it with Nero.

    1) Go to file, select new playlist. Creat the playlaist.
    2) Download your music into iTunes.
    NOTE: CHECK 'Recently Added' before you download your music.
    If the select boxes has a check in them, turn it off by
    holding down the 'ctrl' key and selecting one of the
    checked boxes. This shold turn off all the checks.
    It would be better to clear 'Resently Add' of all
    previous downloads, but I don't know how to do that
    yet.
    3) under 'PLAYLIST' on the right, select 'Recently Add'.
    all of your song should show there with a check in the selection
    box.
    4)Hold the shift key and select the frist (selete records name),
    then the last recorded tune. All of the recordings shouls light
    up blue.
    5) While holding the 'shift' key, drag one of the records to your new
    playlist. All of the blue highlighted song will transfer to the new
    playlist.

  • Question for CL Forum Ad

    I have been reading through this forum and there seems to be no shortage of upset customers. They all seems to be asking the same questions over and over again, and the only answer given is, "I'll post more information when I get it".
    Now, I'm not a real tech savvy guy, but why is it not possible, to walk over to the desk of the head developer, and say, "Hey Steve, can you tell me why the new drivers are the same as the beta ones?"
    And then walk back to your PC and type the answer here. I mean lets be honest, unless you are sending messages via snail mail, I don't understand why this is so hard to do. I suspect you HAVE the answers, but the big cheese at CL has told you to simply deflect the questions for now.
    What I am trying to say is that by you saying you'll post information when you get it, does nothing but make your company look completely rag tag. It gives the impression that everyone just works part time from home, and they only meet every other Saturday for a softball game. There is no official statements from CL, you guys don't have any answers, no one knows when anything is being released or what it'll have in it...it just seems like the company is in shambles.
    And this brings me to my second question. While you're slow to respond to questions about why things aren't working and such, but you are quicker than a fat man chasing a rolling donut down the street when someone advertises another brand, so my question is what do YOU recommend we do?
    Can you suggest some solutions for all of the people who bought CL cards and have no working drivers? I would really appreciate if you didn't simply ignore, or skirt around this question.
    I think it's time you threw us a bone here, if you're not going to give us any information, then at least give us some other alternati'ves.

    Dude, honestly, I could care less what happened 0 years ago. I have said it before and I'll say it again for you, just because this type of thing keeps happening doesn't mean it's right.
    When I buy a product from a company I don't do it thinking, "Hey, maybe if I buy this product then the $200 will help them become the best company in the world, and I don't care if it works or not, I just like the feeling of supporting companies in the hopes they'll do well!"
    I buy products, and I expect them to work.
    Regardless, if you had actually read my post, you would see that I'm not asking when the drivers will be out, or why they aren't... I am asking why this "world leader" in sound cards can't communicate effecti'vely with it's customers? I am asking why the Admins keep saying the same old mumbo jumbo, and expect us to buy that they can't actually just go talk to the people in charge.
    I am also asking if they can't tell me that information, then help me find some alternati'ves.
    So, why don't you paypal me a few hundred dollars for a new sound card. You seem to have no problem sitting there giving your sound card "high fi'ves" and talking to it in a sweet voice, "Don't worry little sound card, I know you have amazing potential, I won't give up on you!"
    "Do you remember the old days of Windows 2000?" We then cut to a montage of you running through fields of flowers hugging your sound card and a copy of Windows 2000. You shake your fingers at them and say, "Not yet little guys, soon we'll all be together in harmony, we just have to wait!!"

    I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?

    First of all, uninstall it with the uninstaller.
    Then:
    Install the ENGLISH version.
    Change the language in the CC app to Korean.
    Install the Korean version. (DON't uninstall the English version)
    Change back the langauge in the CC app to English.
    When your OS is running in English, InDesign will run in English with Korean functionality added, if your OS is running in Korean it will take the Korean User Interface, so let your OS run in English.
    Every installer language will add needed plugins for the work with that language. E.g. If I install Hebrew, I get RTL functionality in German version, only if I would change the OS language it would change the language of InDesign, InDesign takes always as UI language the language of the OS if available, if not (in your case you have uninstalled English before), it takes any version which is available in the order of languages specified in the OS.
    If you need to run your program in a different language than the OS but you have installed it in the language of the OS it becomes more difficult. You would have to use some system tools which are able to force a program to open with a different language. Most of those tools are freeware.

    Wait a few hours and check the spam filter. If you still don't get it, ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
