Original Iphone Store Credit

I have the original iPhone and I just saw something on getting a store credit now, I tried going to the website that I saw but it didn't work. Does anyone know how I can go about getting my store credit??

If you are talking about the $100 credit for early adopters, that offer came and went a long time ago. It was offered in September of last year and you had a few months to apply for it.

Original iPhone -- $ 100 credit

I bought the original iPhone in July 2007 and received a $ 100 credit when the prices dropped a few months later. I have not yet redeemed the credit. I tried to use it in buying a new 3G S earlier today but didn't see how to use the credit. There is no "redeem by" notice on the credit. Is the $ 100 credit still valid?

You said you hadn't redeemed the credit. If that's correct, then it's too late. If, however, you redeemed the credit but haven't used it, then it should be valid on almost anything in the Apple Store. You'll have to ask about using it on a new iPhone, though.
But again, if you never redeemed the credit, you're out of luck.

IPhone store credit for earlier buyers --still available?

Hi all,
First post here. I'm one of the earlier iPhone buyers this summer, and paid the whopping 600 bucks (that said, I'm happy with the phone). I remember Jobs issuing a store credit of 100 dollars and had been planning to use it. However, an Apple store employee told me today that it "expired, like, six weeks ago." ...Is this true? I have not heard of an expiration date. Though, I don't see where I can generate a coupon on the website. May anybody help guide me there? Thanks much! A.

Hello,
I also have a question regarding the $100 Iphone rebate.
I had made my online submission for the rebate in September 2007 and received an "Apple Store credit access code". Now I want to use this code purchase the Leopard software. However, it seems like the code I received on my Iphone is not sufficient. I received a six digit code while the required information is a credit number and a pin. Does anyone know how to get the credit number and the pin by using the six digit access code I have.

IPhone Store Credit Disappeared?

Hi All,
Like a good little Appleite, I went and got my store credit after the iPhone price was dropped. I printed out my handy dandy Credit Number and PIN for use in the future.
Well, the future is now. I tried to use in the online apple store and it said that the balance was zero!
Can I only redeem this thing in person in an apple store? I have not used the discount in any way since I got the coupon, so I am confused as to why it seems to indicate a balance of zero.
Thanks,
R

Apple Iphone Store Credit

Can I use my remaining credit to download Itunes? Thanks

You are not allowed to use the credit to buy music. But I do believe you can buy the iTunes cards, not the gift certificates, but the actual cards.

$100 Credit from original iPhone

I was one of those who bought the original iPhone right when it was released and received the $100 credit when they dropped the price a few months later. I applied for the credit within the time frame given, but now that I want to redeem it I cannot find anyplace to access the credit. I remember printing something out, but that was like 18 months ago... surely that piece of paper can't be the only way to redeem the credit, can it?

Copied from this link.

+iTunes will also create a backup of settings and certain other information on your iPhone or iPod touch when you sync to use in case you want to restore the software on your iPhone or iPod touch or transfer this information to a different device. *Backup information includes information such as mail settings, text messages, notes, call history, contact favorites, sound settings, widget settings, certain network settings, and other preferences.* Applications purchased from the App Store are included in the backup, however they can only be successfully restored to the same device that they were backed up from.+
Contact information and calendar events are not included. I would think contact information would be included with this link since this is important and if included, this is not something you should depend on.

I am trying to change my apple id Country. but it says " you have a store credit balance, you must spend your balance before you can change it." i don't wanna use it to change my country. by the way i can't update any of iPhone apps. need help

It's strange because I can change my AppleID country without this message.
So what to do? Just try to do this again, but on another device. You may also erase cookies and history of your browser.
I hope it will be helpful, good luck!

Credit for Purchasing Original iPhone at Full Price?

I have been out of the country for several months, so I know I'm a little behind here, but was there ever any sort of compensation for those of us who purchased the original iPhone at full price? I heard that there was an iTunes credit or something similar.
If there is any sort of compensation, could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks so much!

Anyone???
Because #1 & #2 dont make sense unless there is a cost difference based on whether you bought your old iPhone before or after Apple dropped the price.
I 'm not sure where the confusion lies. The 1st gen iPhone has been out for a year. There was a price decrease after the first 3 months, and as a concession to early adopters, there was a rebate/refund of $50 or $100 back to the iPhone purchasers. That offer has now, as mentioned above, expired.
The 1st gen iPhone was not subsidized by AT&T, so the user paid for the phone up front, and then subsequently the contract charges (including the $20 data plan) each month for the projected 2-year period. Since all 1st gen iPhone owners *by definition* got non-subsidized iPhones, AT&T says we are eligible for the lowest tier pricing. So are current AT&T users who have fulfilled their current contracts that included a subsidized phone.
The second price tier is for an early upgrade. This from the AT&T site: "You have the option to purchase an early upgrade priced at $399 for 8GB (black) or $499 for 16GB (black or white). Two-year contract required." That's for folks who are still in a contract for a subsidized phone.
Hope this helps.

How can sell my iPhone 4 s to an apple store and get a store credit?

Apple has a "Recycle" program...managed by a third-party...you get a store gift card. However, you'll get far more money selling the phone yourself:

Our $100 Apple Store Credit is Here!!!!!!!

Hi everyone,
This is were the early buyers for the iphone can apply for their store credit.
http://www.apple.com/iphone/storecredit/

I think I found one of the first problems with getting the credit. I bought two phones from the Apple store and because there was an issue with porting numbers over from a Verizon corporate account using iTunes, I had to temporarily activate the phones with a supplied number from AT&T and then call AT&T to have the number manually ported. When I entered my real phone number in it says that I am not eligible but I think it's because their records still show the temporary number that AT&T assigned me linked to my phone’s serial number. When I called Apple for tech support once they said that my serial number was associated with the original number that was assigned to me and not the real current cell phone number. I'm sure they will be able to resolve this but it's probably going to be with me visiting an Apple store. I’m afraid if I try and locate that original temporary number and enter it into the system the SMS message will go off into never never land. Errrr.....

I have an original IPhone that can't connect to ITunes. I did a factory reset and restored to firmware version 3.1.3. Please note that both my ITouches (2nd and 3rd gen) sync to ITunes perfectly. However, the IPhone never connects. Thoughts?

OK, my original iphone has just completed a factory restore. It's connected to my laptop, and ITunes restored it to firmware 3.1.3. Now, I can't connect to the ITunes store. I get an error message every time stating connection timed out, or something to that effect. Well, both my IPod Touch 2nd gen and 3rd gen connect perfectly to ITunes, so I doubt it's related to proxy settings, firewalls, or anything of the sort (believe me, I've spend 15 hours researching this without an answer). So, is there a problem with the original iphone with version 3.1.3 syncing with ITunes version 10.5.1 (the most recent one)?
I would LOVE an answer as this is driving me crazy.
Thanks.

Mine had a SIM in it. Originally, when I took out the SIM and tried to restore it with nothing in it, it wouldn't work without a SIM card. So ... I took the SIM that was in that phone previously, put it back in and completed the system restore. I then proceeded to go through the process with AT&T of adding a data plan, which I did, and then it successfully completed the system restore. However, now if I run diagnostics on it, it will not verify ITunes Store. If I try to connect to ITunes store, I'll get the network connection timed out error I referenced earlier in this thread. I'm considering jailbreaking it and putting on an earlier software version. Your thoughts?

How do I unlock my original iPhone to be used as a backup to my iPhone 3G?

Hey Everyone,
Some background:
Back in July '08, my original iPhone died. This occurred 2-3 weeks after the 1 year warranty expired and the Genius at my local Apple Store was kind enough to still replace it with a refurbished one. However, before I met with the Genius, I bought an iPhone 3G (which is what I'm using now).
My question:
The refurbished iPhone came with firmware 1.1.4 and is useless because it keeps showing the 'connect to iTunes' image. How do I unlock it so I can use it as a back-up to my iPhone 3G?
Right now, it's just a paper weight. When I first got it, I was hoping I could connect it to iTunes to unlock it but I stopped it half way through the process because it started to cancel my iPhone 3G data plan (to replace it with the EDGE data plan). In fact, I had to go to an AT&T store to restore the data plan on my 3G.
FYI, I have no desire to jailbreak it or unlock for use with other mobile carriers. I just want to unlock the phone so that I can use it with my current AT&T plan. I also did a quick Google search an all the articles I found were for jailbreaking the iPhone.
Thanks!

Ok, weird. After starting this thread, I plugged my original iPhone into my MBP and iTunes displayed a message saying the firmware was too old to synchronize. It suggested that I upgrade the firmware. Instead of continuing, I chose to eject the iPhone and now it's activated - i.e., I can use the iPhone and access the apps (except for the ones that require a data connection). So, I guess I'm all set.
Hopefully, iTunes didn't screw up the data plan on my 3G (I don't think it did since it didn't show any message of communicating with AT&T's servers).

If i buy an iphone from the iphone store will it already be set up to a carrier?

So my mom knocked her iPhone 4 into the washer a while back and I was on her Verizon plan and switched to my boyfriends straight talk plan and got a Samsung Centra. So I called the Apple store and they said it'd only be $149 to fix it. And all I would do is bring it in and pay my money and they'd give me a brand new one. What service would it be hooked up to? Or would it be hooked up to one? And Would I need to buy a straight talk card and then set it up to his credit card or do i just call and set it up to his credit card and take money out or what?

Under the out of warranty replacement program, you get an iPhone identical to the one you are replacing...same color, same storage capacity, locked to the same carrier if it is carrier specific. You will have to activate it for use with Verizon just like it was done with the old iPhone.
