Spent $50 on a component cable -$50 + brand new tv + iPhone 3g = nothing

I just ( 3 hours ago) purchased an Av component cable (model #MB128LL/B) from the apple store in hingham, MA. After being assured it would work with my brand new Westinghouse flat screen I brought it home and plugged it in. I get a message that says...not compatible want to go airplane. Regardless of my answer I get no video on tv. iPhon screen plays video with no sound. Tv says no input. Any thoughts? I called the my apple line and was told call Westinghouse. Specs on tv (SK-26H640G) says it works with any component device that outputs 480i, 480p, 720P or 1080i. As far as I know my iPhone 3g outputs 480i? What is the problem?

I have used my component cable (bought from Apple) with the original iPhone, 3G, and 3GS with multiple TV's never had issue.
You should NOT be getting they whole "airplane mode" message.
Seeing that message is usually 1 of two things. 1 the cable (thing being attached) really is not compatible (but in this case, that cable is) OR 2, your dock port on the phone has issues. Each pin does something unique. Some are for charging, some are for syncing, some are four audio, some are for video, etc etc. Depending on what it is being plugged in, it activates certain things. If the phone's dock port is messed up on some pin that is just used for video out you may never have noticed until now.
I would schedule appointment at Apple store to bring in your cable and phone and try out on some screen there. If they see it having issues, they can try a different cable, if still issues, they can try on another phone and if that works, they can replace for you.

I am getting "an unknown error has occurred" when trying to download any free apps from my brand new 4GS iPhone

I am getting "an unknown error has occurred" when trying to download any free apps from my brand new 4S iPhone.
Please Help!!

I had the exact same problem. Worked fine for a couple days then suddenly getting this error. I fixed it, however.
Do this:
Open the App Store app on your phone.
Go to the "Featured" section.
Scroll to the very bottom of the page and click on your Apple ID.
Screen pops up. Choose "Sign out".
Scroll to the bottom of the "Featured" section again.
Sign back in.
Try your download again.
This worked for me. Good luck!

Can i use a brand new verizon iphone 4s on tracfone byop?

can i use a brand new verizon iphone 4s on tracfone byop?
has anyone tried?

The iPhone 4S is locked to Verizon; not sure if it can be used on other domestic carriers if it is unlocked. You would need to contact both Verizon and Tracfone about this.

Chip in brand new White iPhone

This morning I noticed a chip in my brand new white iPhone. I haven't dropped it or anything, it's on the edge of the phone right below the button. Should I take it in?? I shouldn't have a chip if I haven't done anything to it!

Take it in. You've nothing to lose.

Got scammed. Iphone4 instead of 4s. Was in a 4s box looked brand new. I knew nothing about the diff between them. The imei number on the box is diff to the phone. Can I find the owner of the box cause imei is on box

My 12 year old son wanted a 4s so the I said to him you have to earn it. My poor baby worked everyday after school for one month around the house doing odd jobs. As promised after the month I said to him lets go buy one. He said he found one on gum tree. It was $650. So I rang this guy and he told me I could meet him on his break at worked at the shopping centre. So I went and met him. He Had a box with iPhone 4s on it and opened it and it llooked brand new as advertised. I know nothing about iPhones or the difference. So I gave him the $650. When my son gets home from school he opens it and tells me its an iPhone 4 not the 4s. My question is. The imei on the box must be linked to someone as its different to the phone. Can I find out who bought the 4s box....so I can kick the living %#*£ out of him. Thanks.

Thanks for the replies. I have checked the serial number of the 4s box. It's says sorry it's a replacement phone. His mobile number has been disconnected. I found out it was a Vodafone number. The girl at Vodafone told me it was a Vodafone number. I could only get the suburb of where he lived out of her. It's right next to the shop I met him at. I have checked the maps and there is only two roads that lead to the shop. So it's stakeout time. He had a blue Vespa scooter. I know it's only two hundred dollars but I will catch the little runt. And it might take time but the look on his face when I tap him on the shoulder......priceless!!!

Brand new to iphone and OSX programming.. [A Few newb Qs]

Hey guys, I'm really glad apple has these forums 'cause I could use some peer advice.
I've seen the iPhone get bigger and bigger, and I'd like to be a part of software development for it. I think it could open up some pretty interesting doors for me.
I've come up with an idea for a fun little calculator program to start out with, however, i kind of have no idea what im doing. I've taken a few college 101-esque courses on Java, and I know a bit about C++, but what I learned in those classes w/ those languages doesn't seem to be helping me much.
I'm really not sure how to begin to learn iPhone programming. Objective-C seems like a distant cousin from C++. I've read a bit of the documentation on Apple's DevConnection, but i feel like when i read the sample code(the table suite for example) I get completely lost.
I've followed Apple's guide to making the HelloWorld Application(for iphone) which seemed to be a big help until i decided to read more on Tables. (I've decided my calculator program is going to be table based)
It seems as though the tablesuite code is written without the use of the interface builder. I think this could be one of the things confusing me, because the helloworld app teaches one how to link the two together.
Questions:
Is there any other documentation that is in the form of a tutorial like the HelloWorld App one?
Can you guys offer any advice to someone that is brand new to this get started? (I've watched the user experience stuff, and own an iphone, so I know how to plan my interface to look/work in the proper way)
How to i change the Tables in the basic Table-suite code to a grouped table. (1 group, lots of rows)
I've tried to follow apple's table documentation but the code they show and what is actually there seem to be two different beasts.
Thanks for any help you can give guys. I'm looking forward to being a part of this iPhone development world, I just need a boost getting started.

In addition to the usual two books for learning Cocoa and Objective-C (Hillegass and Kochan), you might want to check out Apple's Core Data tutorial, which has some table programming in it:

I bought a Brand New (Unopened) iphone 6 but realised I wanted the 6. Can I swap this at the apple store?

I ended up buying an iPhone 6 Plus through Optus about 6 weeks ago but as I was away I did not get it until yesterday. I only realised this is the larger phone and I require the smaller phone. Am I able to get this swapped over in the Apple Store? It is sealed, brand new.

OK thanks. Was hoping apple would allow a walk in and swap as I need to mail it back to optus and their turnaround is roughly 10 business days... oh well. Thanks for the reply.

I lost my brand new sealed iPhone 5c

So I stayed in a Hotel for a few days, and within those days i bought an iPhone 5c, bue I think I lost it there, because I left the Hotel without it... It was brand new, it was sealed I didn't even started it up. I called to the Hotel reporting my lost phone and they said they didn't find it in the room I was. Is there any chance to get it back with the serial number (i have the receipt) ?

Report it to the police in the city where you lost it. There probably is little chance of getting it back.

Hi Allan,
Sorry for the rant up there..   Thanks for your quick response. I couldn't get to an Apple store and can't order anything from the States that contains Lithium ION batteries -- no U.S. Postal Services will deliver these to us anymore. Target sold this to me as an unactivated Sprint phone. I never activated it through Sprint in the States and just took it to Germany with me. I updated to vs.6.0 via ITunes and without the Sprint SIM Card installed. The IPhone is now accessible (Apps, Settings, etc., to be able to check firmware, et al., settings. However, I can't tell if it's unlocked (since I upgraded the version without the Sprint SIM Card installed) until I go to the local cell phone shop and stuff in a BASE (provider) SIM card and test it out. Is there a way to tell whether or not the phone is unlocked without a SIM card in it? I don't think there is....

Swapping brand new black iPhone 4 for a white one

I recently lost my white iPhone 4 and managed to pay for a new one through my insurance, however I was sent a black iPhone 4. I have not used the new phone nor removed it from its packaging. Would I be able to trade this in at the apple store for a white iPhone 4?
Thanks.

If you didn't get the iPhone from the Apple Store, then the chances of them allowing an exchange is very small, but you can ask. Most dealers, and this includes the Apple Stores, will only accept a return of a product purchased from that store.
Good luck.

On my brand new today Iphone I tried to buy a ringtone and I can't answer my security questions. Please help.

How do i change my security questions?

Did you do the Super Duper clone before you tried to reinstall the OS? If so, the original install disc is likely earlier than 10.4.11, and that may be why you are getting the message.
When trying to reinstall the OS, did you select the "Archive and Install" option? If not, you might try that. Here's a link that might help:

How can I transfer data (iTunes/iPhoto) MacBook Pro (Late 2011) to my brand new iMac 27" - Apple Support couldn't help me and did not make the promised call-back

I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro 13" and bought a brand new iMac 27" last week.
I tried to transfer data (musdic & photos) via Thunderbolt, but i did not run, my system always
tries to transfer data via WLAN, but that would last more than 80 hours.
I tried to get some help from the Apple Support, but unfortunately they couldn't help me.
A promised call-back from the next higher support-level has not been done.
Does anybody know what the problem might be.
The Thunderbolt-cable is brand new.

Instead of using Migration Assistant, the best way is to use the Target Disk Mode, so you will save headaches (Migration Assistant creates a new user with the transferred data).
To do this, just connect both Macs with the Thunderbolt cable, and then, start the MacBook Pro holding the T key, so a Thunderbolt or FireWire icon should appear on the display. After that, go to the iMac, open Finder, and the hard drive of the MacBook Pro will appear on the Finder sidebar as an external drive, under "Devices". Just access to it, go to the folders with your iTunes and iPhoto libraries, and copy them to the iMac

Hey there,
I just got a brand new replacment Iphone 4s.
Since I got it, I did the new update for IOS 7 before I did any thing else..
I did notice my Wi-Fi is off, and can not turn on --- I turned off my phone and turned back on, and unable to turn Wi-Fi on.
Is this a common issue? Unable to turn wifi on?
