SPF, SRS and travelling abroad

Hello,
I've just been reading KB14081 on configuring SRS to overcome the problems with SPF blocking e-mail from Blackberries and the address which the KB advises you to add to your configuration is *@srs.bis.na.blackberry.com. I just did a test mail to myself to see the message header information and I noticed that the Return-Path address is srs.bis.eu.blackberry.com. Making a mental leap, I'm guessing that 'na' stands for North America. I tend to travel abroad from time to time (including North America) so do I need to add both the 'na' and 'eu' lines to my SPF configuration. If so, what other regional codes would one need to apply to be globally covered, or does everything just feed back to my original, 'eu', provider?
Many thanks,
Mark.

Yes.
All iMessage requires is an internet connection which can be wi-fi only.
Turn Cellular Data off and you can enable Airplane mode followed by turning wi-fi access on. All other iPhone radios will be off except for wi-fi.

IMessage and travelling abroad with iPhone

I have a question for those who have travelled internationally with their AT&T iPhone.
Am I correct in assuming that as long as I’m connected to wifi, I can still have iMessage text conversations with other iOS5 users back in the United States, without being billed for anything? Are there any tips you can offer for people traveling internationally on vacation with iOS5 other than that? I’m sure I’ll be on airplane mode when wandering away from the hotel wifi.

Well I am in my first year in college and am finally looking to get a macbook that I have always wanted. But I dont know what one to get. Ill be using it for school work, music and pictures, searching the web and traveling abroad.

I have a lot of pictures and i know I am going to be getting an external hardrive. But i am stuck between the 13 in new macbook air and the 15 in retina macbook. battery life is important but i want it to be really fast and just like a powerhorse. I could use all the input I could get. I will be studying abraod to and i want something that will be good to use over there and still be fast. Thanks guys all imput needed!

Goodness me, a month? That's crazy! I'd say wait it
out and get your free adapter or battery (though I'm
bitter I just barely missed the free nano promotion
too).
I am expressing interest in getting that free battery, but I really don't need an extra adapter because I still have the original one from my first MacBook.
Had you mailed your MacBook in for just the random
shutdown issue? It seems bizarre that it has taken so
long, because I sent mine in for the same issue and
it took two weeks total turn around. Also, did they
give you any reason as to why it will take so long to
ship out your replacement?
My MacBook was initially sent in just for the random shutdown issue, but then I called them while it was getting repaired to request the new plastic, since that was becoming a public issue. I think the logic board was replaced by two weeks into the repair, but then it had to wait longer for plastic. When all of that was replaced, it failed the final testing and was going to take longer, but they offered a replacement.
I think my replacement is taking so long because it is a custom build (so that took about 3 business days) and then estimated shipping is always one week, so since yesterday it has been waiting to be shipped.
ARGH.

HT5654 I often travel abroad and my host has changed Internet provider. Then my service was interrupted and I can't update iTunes. Any tips to stop the error messages?

Wow! At least on Apple TV, problem solved. Apple: what's not to love? Please give me credit if you use it in marketing campaigns... ;-)

Traveling Abroad, I Restored Iphone4sVerizon and now it No Longer works Itunes says

Hello I am Traveling abroad and Currently i am in Turkey do to a mishap I had to restore my Iphone 4s Verizon which had been working fine the day before. So I restored it and now when I plug it into Itunes it says that the number is N/A and the phone tells me I have no service. So I called verizon and they told me that the phone was activated. So I tried to make a call and it called but it can not send a text or use any data which is strange cause it could yesterday. When I power on the phone it tells me to wait for Activation and that it may take some time its been a day now and nothing has happened. I really need this to start working. I called verizon and they told me just to reset the phone which I had already tried and it was no help. I am in desperate need of help and any advice will help. I do have a international plan.
Thank You Very MUch

I will be travelling abroad but use time machine and modem at home. Do I need to leave these switched on while away for iCloud to work?

I will be travelling abroad but use time machine and modem at home. Do I need to leave these switched on while away for iCloud to work?

No. iCloud has nothing to do with Time Machine on your computer, and as long as your computer has synched all desired content and settings to iCloud, not only does the modem not need to be switched on, your computer doesn't need to be on either.

When I travel abroad my phone shows "no sim" and doesn't work. Help?

Hello.
I have travelled abroad the last couple of years and when I land my phone works for about 5-10 minutes then comes up with "no sim installed" then doesn't work at all.
Roaming is switched on from what my account says so I'm unsure of why this is happening. Could someone please help?
Thanks

Hi .
This is strange.
You will need to give us a call, we may need to update the Roaming settings.
Thanks.

I called Verizon prior to travelling abroad and asked to turn roaming on. As of today, 4 days later, I have no service. I do not have a landline to call. GlobalServices email does not work... Does anybody know how to reach customer support via email?

Hi Florence2014
I'm so sorry your having issues. Unfortunately there isn't an email for global support. The only way way to reach them while traveling is to call them at 908-559-4899.

How to secure iPhone and iPad when traveling abroad against xtra charges

How to secure iPhone and iPad when traveling abroad against xtra charges?

You can either put them in "Flight Mode" ( Found in settings. This feature disables 3G, 4G and Wifi), or you can go into your settings and turn off mobile networking ( also found in settings, this allows you to connect to wifi, but disables mobile networking)

No. Not without access to a computer running iTunes. You do want to use your own computer so that you can restore from your backup and sync your own content back from iTunes.

Traveling abroad and want to use skype on my mobil...

I will be traveling abroad to Costa Rica and Nicaragua and taking my mobile phone with me. I will be able to use my phone to connect to the internet whenever wi-fi is available. I will not be able to use my phone for regular calling. So, I want to know if I can make calls through skype using my phone as long as I am connected to the internet through wi-fi? My calls will be to regular landlines or mobiles, not to skype numbers. I will therefore add skype credit once I know that I will be able to call.
Thank you

I can understand how this might happen but I think you posted in the wrong forum...if you're planning on using free wifi sites. Skype wi-fi is to pay for service in hotspots where wifi isn't free. See this link for an explanation:
http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/features/allfeatures/skype-wifi/
In any case, yes, if you have wifi service, free or paid, Skype on your phone, and credits available, you can call landlines or mobiles with Skype. The rate for the calls will depend on the country you're callling. You can see the rates here:

Saying the pop3 server can't be contentacted. Please help!!!

Hello Venusdom! We can definitely look into this for you! Caller ID is a carrier specific feature, and may not be available in all areas when travelling abroad. Are you in the same location you were yesterday? Where are you travelling?

How to properly update iTunes content while traveling abroad?

Spent some time searching and found a number of threads covering T&Cs and whys and wherefores of US Citizens on extended overseas travel trying to update or purchase iTunes content. There's a lot of 'why not' but not much 'how to'.
I'm seeking the Apple-approved solution for those of us with US based iTunes accounts who are traveling or deployed overseas or take extended temporary jobs abroad. How can we legally, properly, update our podcast subscriptions, apps for iPhones, or purchase content?
Do we have to simply change the country setting at the bottom of the iTunes Store window, so we are interacting with whatever the local Store is and the content will live happily in iTunes no matter which Store it was purchased from?
Do we have to set up a new account with local credit card in every land we are assigned?
There has to be a way, it seems illogical that you can't update podcasts or apps while traveling. There's got to be an Apple-approved method for this!
If anyone knows the answer or a link to the answer or something near to it, please provide the info. The T&C are clear enough in regards to "purchases" and using the US store only from in the US, but doesn't answer the 'how-to' for customers traveling abroad who are not spending any money by getting new podcast episodes or free app updates.
So again, no need to rehash the T&C, just seeking the 'proper' way to update things if away for a while. I'll be stupefied if I hear that the official Apple answer is the iPhone content is frozen in place until I get back in US territory.
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, Chris.
After posting the message, I changed my iTunes Store to India (where there may be work opportunities) and there were only Apps and iTunes U content tabs, and the T&C were similar-can only shop at the store where you are connecting from. So unless the store looks different when logging in while physically in India, there wouldn't be a way to update podcasts.
I am concerned about an important distinction, though, which is 'what will work' vs. 'what is T&C compliant'...

How easy it is travel abroad with the Verizon model of the new iPad?

On the specs listed on Apple's site for the new iPad, it lists GSM frequencies under Verizon model as well !!!
I am sure that one can't use AT&T SIM on the Verizon model, something must have been locked to prevent that.
But does anyone know how easy it is to pop in a foreign country 3G GSM micro-sim when travelling abroad into the new model Verizon iPad?
I have already ordered an AT&T model, but later realized that even the Verizon model shows GSM capabilities. If I could find conclusively about the foreign 3G GSM freedom on Verizon, I will definitely exchange my AT&T model for a Verizon one.

I don't think CDMA uses SIM card at all, hence no SIM slot in ipad 2 VZ model.
But LTE requires a SIM card, the VZ model of the ipad 3 is forced to have a SIM slot.
Here's an FAQ page from VZ site talking about LTE SIM:
http://support.verizonwireless.com/information/4gsim.html
It's good (I am hoping truly that's the case) that Apple also allowed 3G GSM capability, this means one can pop out the VZ LTE micro-SIM and pop in any 3G micro-SIM.
I think there might be some lines of code from Apple to at least prevent an AT&T micro-SIM to work on a VZ ipad 3 just to prevent VZ from getting upset.
But other 3G micro-SIM's should work on VZ model. We can only find out on the 16th.
Here's one article that talks in details on this topic:
