Say the new iPhone 5 came out this summer/ fall, can I really turn in my iPhone 4S with $100 to get the iPhone 5 even though my contracts not up yet?

Someone told me that if a new iPhone comes out less than a year after I bought my iPhone 4S, I can get the new one for $100 + my old iPhone. I bought my iPhone 4S in December of 2011, so if the new iPhone comes out, can I really get it for $100?
Thanks.

I thought vzw did that for one device but you would have to buy it right before the new one came out. Since potentialy you have bought the iPhone 4s almost year by the time it Comes out probably not. I don't think they would. Maybe it was the iPad somepeople bought the original and then the 2 came out right afterword so they let them get $100 towards the newer one.
If you upgrade there will be a $30 fee too starting April 22. Is it worth not waiting? because if you don't have another upgrade you would be paying full retail to me that's a lot and you would be about 10 months away from upgrading. For me i think pros and cons. By the time you can upgrade 20 months from other purchase you will know how good it is and what the hype is, probably bill to the account will be hopefully available, and they will have more chooses at the stores. I know from expierence that when the iPhone comes out it takes while for the Verizon stores to get anything because of how popular it is. I like to go to the store to get things like this. Trying to show you the positive of haveing to wait.

This problem showed up last year spent 2 months with apple senior supervisor for tech support no solution. When the "new" itunes came out problem fixed its self. Just did an update last week or so and back to the problem. In "get info" missing all rt side

Last year upon an update some of my itunes media was not working. Then the new version came out and it fixed itself.
Well another update and we start over with the problem. In the itunes store you can not preview any tv show, music video, or movie.
In your itunes library none of the purchased movies, tv shows, or music videos play. The element the same is in the get info tab. The information in the right side pane in the middle is gone. The left side information is still present. The right side info is the purchase info. Even an item downloaded today had the missing info and will not play. After dealing with apple support with the first go around last year. I uninstalled and reinstalled itunes 8 or more times, in the proper order. I deleted my itunes library and reinstalled it. We deleted all types of program files and program data. nothing worked. I was trying things on my own and foung nothing. Please help I am so frustrated with this. It seems to be a codec error that I can not solve.

I just got the new macbook pro about 2 weeks ago, it has lion. When the new mountain lion comes this summer, can i just update it on my macbook pro since it isn't so old? And if i can update it, do i have to pay, or is it a free update?

I'm in the same position, the store said they didn't know of any new release, so i bought my macbook pro to find out about mountain lion. I really hope that i'm not going to pay for the upgrade. New to apple, also last month bought my Ipad 3, really thought that Airplay would have been on my book pro, nope, waste of time.........need that update to use it. Back i the box then, get the windows 7 ultimate pro back out until then.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have a new Mac Pro computer and have migrated my files from my older computer to the new computer. In trying to open a Lightroom catalog on an external hard drive I keep on getting the message "lightroom cannot use the catalog named " " because it is not writable and cannot be opened. I have fixed all the "permissions" and yet it will still not open. How do I fix this?

Hello Forum Members,
I figured it out. You have to select the actual logo of the Lightroom catalog and then click on "get info" and allow what ever your new user name to "read and write". That worked!

There's no agree button on the new iTunes terms and conditions, so I can't buy any apps for my iPhone5, with iOS7. Any suggestions? Three E-mail exchanges with Apple didn't help,can you?

My backed up files from iphone to my mac cannot be seen as they are, but only numbers and letters, they seem to be encrypted even though I did not click on encrypted when backing up

I am using a Mac Book Air to back up my Iphone 5 on Itunes. What I can see of the files are encrypted even though I did not click on the Encrypt box.
Please, help.

Backups of an iPhone made using iTunes are stored in a format that is only meant for use in a restore and are not meant to be accessed directly. There are other methods of transferring things like photos and contacts to your computer such as iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer, iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ, and https://www.apple.com/icloud/
If you absolutely must directly access an iTunes backup there is 3rd party extraction software available such as http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/ibackupextractor/

Question About the New Update Due out this Month

Hi I would like to know when Apple, does come out with the New update this month will it be for the New iPhone, do out on June 9th,2008 or for the People who have the Old iPhone, that will then be out dated?
Thanks
Lisa*

Firmware update 2.0 will be for all existing iPhones, and for all iPod Touch(es), but iPod Touch owners must pay a nominal fee for the update due to accounting reasons.
Firmware update 2.0 will likely be pre-installed on the 2nd generation iPhone. If not, it can be installed as an update the same as for the first generation iPhone.
Updates for the first generation iPhone will not stop after the 2nd generation iPhone is released. Both will be running the same operating system, with the only hardware difference we know for certain included with the 2nd generation iPhone is a 3G chipset making it a 3G phone.
The first generation iPhone will not become outdated when the 2nd generation iPhone is released. There are some people in the U.S. that don't live in an area where at&t has 3G network coverage, and where at&t doesn't have plans to add 3G network coverage this year or the next.
You purchase a new computer this week, and a new and improved version of the same computer model is released within 6 months or a year. This doesn't make the computer you purchased this week outdated. The same applies to the iPhone.

Bought a MacBook Pro Just Before the New Ones Came Out?

I'm just going to put this out there since every time Apple refreshes a product, we get the same questions:
+*1) I just bought my MacBook Pro a week ago. Can I exchange it for a new 2011 one?*+
In the U.S., Apple has a 14 day return policy. You may return your product at any point during that 14 day period. Apple's official policy is to charge a 10% restocking fee. However, they have been known to waive the fee... especially after a product refresh. There is no guarantee that they will do this however.
+*2) I'm so mad!! I just bought my machine in January and it's already obsolete! Now I feel like I have been cheated by Apple.*+
This comment comes up every time there is a product refresh. It can be frustrating when an updated version of something you spent a considerable sum of cash on is released shortly after your purchase. Just remember, at the time you made the purchase, you decided that the product you bought offered what you wanted at a price you were willing to pay. You haven't been cheated out of anything. You received exactly what you expected at the price you agreed to. Your machine does not become obsolete just because a newer model comes out. If the machine you purchased met your needs when you bought it, it will continue to meet your needs regardless of whether or not an updated version was released. If you are within the return period per #1 above, you may return your machine and purchase a new model.
+*3. It's not fair that Apple doesn't tell us that they are updating their machines. I would have waited had I known updated machines were coming out. I asked the guy at the store if there were any updates on the way and he said he didn't know.*+
Very few manufacturers make announcements about updates to their products. For computers, new processors, video components, chipsets, etc. are released at a blinding pace. It is expected that computer manufacturers will update their products regularly. If they don't, they simply won't be competitive. It tends to be more obvious when it comes to Apple products as there are only a few basic models (vs. the tens to hundreds offered by companies like HP, Asus, Toshiba, etc). Frankly, from a business standpoint, it also doesn't make sense to pre-announce updates as they will cripple sales of existing stock. Generally, before a product refresh, there are lots of rumors. A little research ahead of time will usually make it clear if an update is at least expected. Neither Apple store employees nor employees at other Apple Authorized Resellers have any advance knowledge of new releases. They may know about the same rumors that you'll find online, but they have no more concrete information than anyone else until an official announcement.

TS1398 Frustrated lost WIFI on IPAD 1 the day the new IOS came out, which 1 does not have. Tried everything listed, what next?

Have done everything possible, spent hours reading every tip possible. What can I do, is Apple aware that lots of folks who did not update to IOS6 lost their WIFI on the 18th?

Has nothing to do with the iOS 6 release on 19 Sept. and which can't be installed on the iPad 1.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Since i have downloaded the new IOS 8 my ipod touch 5G has been much slower, is there any way to downgrade and get the MUCH better IOS 7 back?

I have recently downloaded the new IOS 8 and it has made my Ipod much slower.
is there any way to get IOS 7 back or a way to speed up IOS 8?

Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple:
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

When are the new Thinkpads coming out this year? T4xx?

I am hoping to get a new one. More interested in the T4XXs rather than the normal T4XX.
Any ideas?
Thanks
ThinkPad T420s (4174-HG6) i5-2540M 8GB RAM, 320GB HDD
ThinkPad T430s (2356-GDG) i5-3320M, 8GB RAM, 500GB HDD x 2
Solved!
Go to Solution.

>> I don't understand this year's refresh. Why haven't they updated the T430 and just updated the T430s to T431s?
T431s is based on Intel's 2012 platform (Ivy Bridge). It is Lenovo's first ultrabook with a docking connector. T431s is not technically part of "this year's refresh".
You can assume there will be a complete refresh of all systems when Intel's 2013 platform (Haswell) is released.
