Can someone explain purchasing, activating and signing up for iPhone.

Hi, iPhone hits UK in November and I'd like to be prepared. Can someone explain to me how it's going to work. In the USA where do you buy the phone - the Apple store, and what do you do just walk in a buy the actual phone as if it were an iPod? And then how does activation work? What is it, just registering the iPhone with Apple or signing up with the network provider? What stops you from just buying the phone and putting another AT&T or O2 sim in and not signing up for one of the contracts?

Presuming that it will look pretty much the same as it did for US customers, it will be something like this..
You walk into your local Apple store and purchase an iPhone, or you can order one through the UK online Apple store (or, presumably, O2 will sell them in their local shops).
You connect the iPhone to any computer which meets the minumum system requirements. It will recognize a new, unactivated iPhone and take you through the activation, which includes:
1. Entering your name, address, and payment info
2. Create an iTunes Music Store account if you do not already have one
3. Select which type of call plan you want (how many call minutes, how many text messages, etc)
4. Specifying whether you want a new number assigned or want to port your number from another provider (assuming this can be done in the UK)
You will then wait while the activation is completed, which can take several minutes. Once your phone is activated you will be able to make calls, send text messages, and use all the other functions of the iPhone, including syncing your contacts, calendars, and music to it. If you are porting a number from another service, once the port is complete you will be able to receive calls. If you are being assigned a new phone number, you will be able to receive calls right away.

Can someone explain AirPort Express and iPhone interaction?

Is it possible to use the iPhone along with an Airport Express? Is there any interaction between these devices? For example can I use the iPhone to control music playback through the Airport Express?
thanks.

Nathan,
Thank you for your reply but can you please provide more details? I'm really confused over Airport Extreme vs. Airport Express vs. Air Tunes and how this all interfaces with the iPhone. Can you please explain these devices? I also saw a post from someone stating they could control wireless music playback via their iPhone, how is this possible?
Edit: See the post by Mike Kelley at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1159025
How is he doing this? Is he using Airport Extreme or Airport Express or Air Tunes?

I cannot find a way to sort the bookmark folders themselves alphabetically by name.I am not talking about in a view mode but in the way they are displayed when I click on my bookmarks tab. Can someone explain to me how to accomplish this.

I have a lot of various book mark folders with websites contained within each folder. I am able to sort the websites within each folder alphabetically by name but I cannot find a way to sort the bookmark folders themselves alphabetically by name.I am not talking about in a view mode but in the way they are displayed when I click on my bookmarks tab. Can someone explain to me how to accomplish this other than manually dragging them as this is extremely hard for me due to the fact that I am a quadriplegic with limited hand movement dexterity

Bookmark folders that you created are in the Bookmarks Menu folder. "Sort" that folder.

I go to touch an app or game button on my iPhone and the screen blinks like its trying to open, but nothing happens. Why and what do I do?

I go to touch an app or game button on my iPhone and the screen blinks like its trying to open, but nothing happens. Why and what do I do to fix it?

Are there any apps in the muti-tasking bar? If the app closed unexpectedly and appeared in the muti-tasking bar, end it. Double tap the home button and then hold the app until it starts to wiggle then tap the minus at the top left at the app (if you want, end all the remaining apps) try opening them now. Hope this helps! :)

I would suggest that join your iphone with iTunes and do not sync. Than in your info window of iTunes uncheck auto sync of songs and videos. Check Mark for manual selection of songs. Also uncheck sync of songs window. After this sync your iphone and manually copy your songs from your iphone through itune by opening music under your iphone icon in the left status bar and copy to your laptop music folder. I think it would help out. I did same for myself. Try out. TC

CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN ME THE DISPLAY QUALITY

I have just purchased a new macbook pro 15" 2.4ghz. Im a designer, i havent even created my appleid, im on my sisters... i made a sacrifice to buy this $2700 laptop.
and Im so dissapointed...
I CANT SEE SMOOTH GRADIENTS.. all i see are ugly lines... i dont get it, for such a high class LAPTOP.
Apple support please help me solve this. ive been reading forums about 6bit screens for this laptop.. i dont want to believe that. can someone explain? im returning this...

I can verify that all of Apple's laptops use 18 bit (6 bits per Red, Green Blue) color, which is about 260,000 colors. The OS then using dithering to fake the missing colors. Despite what you have read, they are incapable of 24 bit 'millions of colors'.
The problem with this argument is that, when it comes down to it, the color displays are made up of dithered red, green, and blue elements anyway. We accept that this form of display gives us "full color", so it's difficult to argue that millions of colors can't be represented using the same mechanism. It's not quite 16.7 million (more like 16.3 or something) but Apple's text has always taken care to read "millions of colors" rather than 16.7 million (which you'll still see on the specifications for the Cinema displays).
Just for informational sakes though, these kinds of 6-bit displays don't rely on OS spatial dithering; they actually make use of their very fast switching to perform temporal dithering, switching a pixel between two shades very quickly to generate an in-between shade. That's why for most people the result is usually visually indistinguishable from true 8-bit color, and doesn't look like what you'd see with traditional dithering.
If the OP is noticing severe banding on gradients, it's more likely to be an issue with color profiles than with the display being 6-bit.

You're looking at the SUBSIDIZED price of the iPhone in the US that carriers offer by having the purchaser enter into a 2 year contract.

I bought a new iphone5. In the store I have been told to cync the phone. the phone has apps, makes calls and connects to the internet. WHAT AM I MISSING?

When you turn on your iPhone for the first time, the Setup Assistant will walk you through entering account information or turning on certain features. If you skip setup, you can always go back and enter details or make changes by following the steps outlined in these articles:
Connecting to the Internet
Signing in with or creating a free Apple ID
Setting up iCloud
Turning on recommended features, such as Location Services and Find My iPhone
Activating iPhone with your carrier
During setup, you can copy your apps, settings, and content from another iPhone by restoring from an iCloud backup or from iTunes

I have Lion on my laptop and I want to back up my calendar TO my iphone. Not the reverse. iCloud only goes from iphone to iCloud to mac not the other way. Also, why doesn't "sync" mean update most recent changes across all devices?

I have Lion on my laptop and I want to back up my calendar TO my iphone. Not the reverse. iCloud only goes from iphone to iCloud to mac not the other way. Also, why doesn't "sync" mean update most recent changes across all devices? I thought that was the point of iCloud. Any suggestions since iCloud doesn't seem to work?

It's a work computer so I wanted to save them to my iTunes so I can access from another computer. Should I go to a home computer and just Import for best results? If so how do I do this? Also, why would I be synched with another library and how do I find out what this is? Very new/green user here
