The iPhone- Not a corporate friendly phone???

I guess what I'm trying to say is that if you work in an evironment where the Treo's and the Crackberry rules, will this phone have issues adapting to the system?
My friend and I had this conversation over the weekend and he brought up the fact that with the e-mail, PIM (personal information management), and some security issues that the phone will have problem intergrating in a business environment.
FYI, he is a banker who travels a third of a year and I'm in the medical field where beepers are still in fashion....go figure
Mac OS X (10.4.10)

It depends upon the software your company uses. Mail is easy, as long as you don't demand push. IMAP is supported by just about all mail servers. Some companies apparently don't turn it on, but that's not iPhone's fault. If your mail system supports server-side rules, you can get something like push by generating SMS messages for key email. I wouldn't do it for all email, as the cost of SMS would be unreasonable, but if there is certain mail you want to be alerted by, you can set up a rule to forward that mail to your phone by SMS. This assumes a mail system with a competent rule processor, but that shouldn't be unusual.
Calendar is harder. If your software works with iSync, you're in luck. There's third party (Snerdware) software to sync to Exchange. You can also sync via Entourage. But multiple layers of syncing create lots of opportunities for problems. I'm at a university. We use Sun's JES calendar. One-way sync (from JES to iCal) is quite reliable. So I have my events on my iPhone. To add an event I use a web application that is designed for a small screen, and optimized for iPhone

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

When i send an imessage from ipad I get the answer most times at the iphone, not at ipad from where i sent the message. Apple ID on both devices is the same. What can i do?

When i send an imessage from ipad I get the answer most times at the iphone, not at ipad from where i sent the message. Apple ID on both devices is the same. What can i do?

I am sorry, my english isn't very good.
Next try :) I send a iMessage from my ipad (wifi only) to a friend and he answers but i don't receive the answer on the ipad but on the iphone instead. Both devices using the same Apple ID (Settings>Messages>Receive At, same Adress on both devices). I tought iMessages are always received on bothe devices, like the advertisment says i should be able to start a iMessage conversation on ipad and finish it on iphone because both devices receive my iMessages... Thats not like it is on my devices, most times iMessages are only received from the iphone.

HT4859 How when uve set up the iPhone 5 as a new phone how do u get ur stuff from ur iCloud's

How when uve set up the iPhone 5 as a new phone how do u get ur stuff from ur iCloud's account I've logged in to it but its not given me an option besides back up now which I've done but still nothing?

If you want to restore to an iCloud backup, go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup.

I have just purchased the iPhone 5s and my previous phone was backed up on iCloud. However when I restored this on my new phone my photos are still being restored after 4 days. Shows the amount there but no pictures?

I have just purchased the iPhone 5s and my previous phone was backed up on iCloud. However when I restored this on my new phone my photos are still being restored after 4 days. Shows the amount there but no pictures? Is there anything I can do to get them back as my other phone has now been cleared. On my iCloud storage it still shows that my previous phone had all the info still?? I'm confused!

Many users have lost photos while preforming a restore from backup or upgrading the iOS. Recall, only photos in the camera roll are backed up to iCloud. There is a way to turn backups for camera roll on/off, perhaps these users had camera roll turned off.
See:
Settings>icloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage, tap the device's name and on the next screen, be sure Camera Roll is turned on.
IMPORTANT...
Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album) or using photo stream. If using Photo stream, but sure to move the received photos to a permanent album. If you have been doing that, then you can sync those photos back to your device.
Or, you can find other apps in the app store that send camera roll photos to a service like Dropbox.
If you haven't been saving photos except relying on iCloud to store them in a backup, then that is risky, as many users have discovered. I'm afraid I have no advice in this case - there is no "cure".

Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS?

Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS? this in the works?

"Why Does the iPhone not send/receive MMS?"
Apple chose not to offer this as a feature of iphone. E-mail can accomplish the same thing.
"is in the works?"
This has been asked and answered countless times. The forum search bar is on the right side of this page.
Apple has announced that MMS will be included in the 3.0 software due out this summer. Before you ask, all that has been announced is in this link:

HT4859 I have my iPhone and iPad backed up to iCloud. Recently, I had my iPhone stolen. I am trying to see the iPhone Notes but when I go to iCloud, I can only see my iPad Notes. How can I see the iPhone Notes?

I have been backing up my iPhone and iPad through the iCloud.
Recently my iPhone 4 was stolen but had recently been backed up. I am trying to find the Notes on that iPhone through the icloud.com.
When I go onto icloud.com, I can only see the iPad Notes - not the iPhone Notes.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
G

Were both devices sync'ing their notes to iCloud? Or was one set to sync, and the other just to backup?
If you look in settings -> iCloud you needed to have the slider by Notes "ON" for both devices if you wanted to sync notes between both of them and iCloud. In that case, notes on each would be identical, and the same as you can view in the Notes app on www.iCloud.com
If you had the Notes slider "OFF" and the iCloud Backup option "ON" then your notes should be in your backup and restoreable, but you will not see them online in the Notes app there.

Is the iPhone 4s a Quad Band phone?

Is the iPhone 4S a quad band phone? Is the iPhone 4 a quad band phone?

Hello nileswimmer,
If I understand correctly you want to know if the iPhone 4s can use 4 cellular bands with a GSM network. According to the following artcle, yes it does:
Apple - iPhone - iPhone 4s Technical Specifications
World phone
UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); CDMA EV-DO Rev. A (800, 1900 MHz)3
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Sterling

Why does the iPhone not have expandable memory (i.e. MicroSD Chips)?

I know that many phones come with a MicroSD slot to come with the phone, but why does Apple NOT provide a slot for the iPhone. I would like to know the answer to this hardware puzzle, because many competing phones have these advantages. The only upside I see in the iPhone is web versatility and stability, and that's diminishing very very fast.

Why close it? Some people might be interested in reading it.
No, posting on a site for a different product saying your product doesn't meet my needs make it like a Surface is trolling. Chiding someone who made a comment 2 years ago who isn't even here is trolling.
Basically what you did was buy a product that you knew didn't have 2 important features that you think are essential and now you want Apple to add that. And even if they did add that then you would be posting about the fact that you can't copy anything to the USB or microSD device and you can't copy apps, documents, etc. Which is because iDevices don't have an accessible file system. And you've already mentioned you want that. Due to security reasons it isn't going to happen.
What you've said you need is a table that is a full computer. You need to buy the Surface Pro (skip the RT, there are limitations you will not be happy with). It will give you a USB port, accessories for a microSD and a fully accessible file system.
The good news is Apple's devices hold resale value far, far better than any other comparable devices. So sell yours and get a Surace Pro. You will be glad you did.

Should I desroy the iphone as i think its dead now. To sell it is nothing as i cant sell a dead iphone.

Please try the following...
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Hey guys apple need to sort this issue people are buying new phones here and the sound not playing from there phones like alot of people are having the same problem apple are ignoring it. I went to an apple shop for them to want 150 pounds of me

Hey guys apple need to sort this volume problem out soon like there is guys who have just bought new phones and it is happening to there's.i went to an apple shop for them to tell me I had to pay £150 to get it replaced I don't want a replacement so clearly they know what the problem is apple need to review this site and act fast before they loose alot of customers.

If you just purchased your iPhone, it will still be under warranty and Apple will replace it at no charge assuming that there hasn't been any damage due to abuse. So anyone with a new iPhone will be taken care of. If your iPhone is out of warranty and it has a hardware problem, then you have to pay the replacement charge regardless of what the problem is. Apple does not repair individual iPhones, they replace them. If you want the iPhone repared rather than replaced, you'll need to send the iPhone to an independent repair shop.
Since you don't say what "volume problem" you're referring to, though, we can't say whether or not this is indeed a hardware problem. Perhaps if you'll detail the problem and what steps you've taken to try and correct it, someone can offer advice.
Regards.

Is the iPhone not so good??

I Read Everyones questions and answers and they all sound like the iPhone is like Crap and not worth to buy....
So i Need Good Feedback on the iPhone.
Because im planning on buying an iPhone This Week!
And now that i read these topics and stuff im really considering it.
and i like the iPhone when i went to go look/play with it at at&t.
PLEASE HELP ME! SHOULD I BUY ONE? ARE THEY TO FRAGILE OR WHAT? HELP.

bear in mind this is a trouble shooting forum so you will see more problems then praise here. Personally I love my iPhone as do the other 2 million sold which do not post here. What you see in this forum is probally less then 1/2% of 1% of the total iPhones sold.
The iPhone lacks a few feartures which can be enchanced with software upgrades, but overall it is by far my favorite phone and well worth owning IMHO. Goto a AT&T store or Apple Store and play with a iPhone and I bet you will fall in love with it...
Best wishes

Hi, ibought iphone 5 at thailand and i live at israel. the screen of the iphone not good and i have responsibility but at my company say that they can't help me what can i do to fix the iphone??

help

Take the iPhone back to Thailand for service and possible
replacement. iPhone warranty is valid only in country of
original purchase. You must take the iPhone yourself or
send to friend/relative to take in to Apple Thailand. Apple
does not accept international shipments for repair nor will
Apple ship out of the country after repair.
