The New iPhone 4 buying it in America and bringing it back to the U.K

I go over to America on the following Monday, and this would be the perfect time for buying the brand new iPhone 4, my only problem is I'm not sure whether or not bringing it back would work in this country.
If so could you tell me whether or not it would work because it would be worth my while.
Thanks guys

Save your money. Even if you could find one(highly unlikely), it won't work where you live as all iphones sold in the US are carrier locked to AT&T & will not activate on any other carrier's network. Further, AT&T does not, has not & will not unlock an iphone for anyone for any reason.

I'm relatively new to Mac and want to try and get the most out of the new MacBook Air.
My wife and I have been sharing the same Apple ID. We both have iPhones - she has a 5 and I've got a 4S.
We only have one copy of iTunes and we have been sharing the account. (She doesn't really use the computer for anything beyond writing the odd weekend assignment.)
Would I be better off setting her up with her own and making her as a separate user on the computer? Would this require much work?
In recent times with updates, we have a few problems with the duplication of texts and that sort of thing. Both of our texts are stored on the computer and that sort of thing. Also, sometimes texts I send her are sent through to me from her, if that makes any sense.
Anyway, I don't really want to overly complicate matters when it comes to accounts etc, but I wanted to know if a fresh Apple ID would be the best thing or even a new user?
Any tips etc would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance

I have this question too (0) Reply

Your question is almost too much a personal one, begging the question "do we (husband and wife) feel comfy sharing one account on the Mac"   maybe thats why nobody answered you.
It doesnt complicate anything, but it adds steps for switching accounts on the Mac/ purchases etc. of course
since your question is mostly personal, ..I wont answer THAT part of it, but creating a new account is easy.....messing with switching back and forth is also a personal preference 'issue' as well.   I prefer to keep things simple, but...........you and yours, I dont know.......

I just updated my iTunes and I do not like the newer version.....can I go back to the earlier version?? This new version does not have the iTunes DJ nor does is show at the bottom as in the earlier version how many songs and the size of my library.

To do this in iMovie 11. use the SHARE menu. Share your project using the Share menu and choose Export Using QuickTime.
In the Dialog box that comes up, choose Sound to AIFF, or one of the other sound options. This will create a file that you can drag into iTubes.

In addition to answering innocentius' question:
You say that nothing happens, yet you are able to export to youtube. Please describe in detail what you are trying.
What destinations do you see? How exactly are you trying to export?
Also: Cmd-E will only work if you set a default destination.

I just went to the new Lion OS from Leopard OS, and when I'm on the internet, it locks up after about 5 or 10 minutes. WhY?

I just went to the new Lion OS from Leopard OS, and when I'm on the internet, it locks up after about 5 or 10 minutes. WhY?

From Leopard or Snow Leopard? If the former then I suggest you erase the drive and reinstall Lion:
Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.
Be sure to run Software Update for any additional updates.

Question uying an Apple TV in Japan and bringing it back to the US.

I currently live in Japan. I'm thinking about buying a Apple TV from a Amazon Japan. The Japanese Apple TV lacks some of the video services (as far as I know; no indication on Apple's description of the Japanese Apple TV that it has all of the US's video service features). So if I bring it back to the US, what then? For example, there is no Netflix in Japan, so there is no built-in Netflix app. Likewise, there is no built-in NBA TV app (at least no indication of one). So is there a way to restore a Japanese Apple TV (via the Micro-USB connection) to make it exactly like a US Apple TV (with all of the features offered on the US version)?
Thanks in advance.

AFAIK there are no 'regional builds' of the AppleTV software.
In UK I get the US Sports listings under Internet column and frankly I'd rather not have them as i have no interest - at least some of these US Sports services can be accessed outside of US if you have a valid subscription to them.
The other services available (TV Shows, Netflix, forthcoming iCloud intergration/itunes match etc and purchases) are determined by the Settings for your country of residence/location and selected international itunes store. In general US has them all - other regions don't.
That does not necessarily mean you can access Netflix outside of US, but if you have an account you could try.
Apple's servers may/may not try to detect your location when providing the list of available services. Even if they do some people have resort to techniques to hide their true location. I've not done this and have no idea how to do so.
Ensure you have the latest AppleTV software. If you still think some options should be showing restore it via iTunes iwth a microUSB cable alone to see if that helps.

HT4137 I want to prompt a backup from a newer iphone to an older phone and it is saying that the iOS is not compatible. How can I update my old device so that I can restore with the latest backup?

I am trying to restore information on an older Iphone and am running into the difficulty of restoring my backup. The backup says its incompatible with the iOS on the old phone so it will not let me choose the latest iphone backup. Is there a way to update my old iPhone before I restore that backup? I already have tried to sync it with the latest version of ITunes. I am nervous to restore to an older backup in case the newer backup will not show up again.

What you have to first do is update your old phone using iTunes. Once done: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. You should now be able to use that backup.

Downloaded the new iPhone update for my 4s and now I get the the "connect to iTunes" image. When I do, it says it needs to restore factory settings. Help! What do I do?

I downloaded the new IOS software update today and now my 4s is stuck on the "connect to iTunes" icon on the screen. When I connect it, it says my cell needs to be restored to factory settings. I don't want to lose everything. Help please! I saw someone else had this problem so hopefully there's already a solution. Thank you.

They will be gone from the iphone, but you should be syning all contacts to your computer regularly and should be importing all pics to your computer regularly, particularly before any update.
Have you failed to do this?

HT1766 Where is my old backup stored? Because of auto backup, I can't see any of my older ones and with new ios erased all my data and it kept backing up the "new" setting

I plugged in my iphone and then itunes says my iOS was old and need update. Hence I update it to 7 where it erased all my data to start with, and it was actually backed up before it was erased.
After the new iOS was installed, it just couldn't restore the old data and instead it kept auto back up the new setting. I called apple help line and the guy said whatever is on the itunes list is all there is. But because of the auto backup, the whole list is full of new backups without my old stuff. Is there anyone who can tell me whether these files are overridden or instead just not showing on itunes, and where can I find it?
Thanks lots

When you restore a device, a new backup is created and the old backup has a date added to the backup name.
Look in iTunes prefs > Devices.
The current backup will not have a date in the name. It will show the date on right side.

I have downloaded the new update for Firefox 3.6 and now cannot connect to the internet. I've checked my firewall and have uninstalled and reinstalled firefox, but nothing works.

After installing the new update for Firefox 3.6, no matter what I do, I cannot connect to the internet using Firefox. I can get on the internet using my other browsers (Google Chrome and Internet Explorer), so Firefox is the only one that doesn't work. I have already checked my firewall and have added and removed Firefox from my firewall to no avail. I've also already uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but so far it hasn't helped.

I have already tried removing firefox from my firewall. Even when I do that, my firewall doesn't detect firefox and prompt me to add it. And when I manually add it, it still doesn't work anyways. I've already tried the link as well, but it has been unhelpful. :/
I'm not sure if it matters, but a few weeks before this, I did download Microsoft Security Essentials.

Backed up my ipod touch with itunes now all my audio books are in itunes but i cant put them back on my ipod. i have never used such a pathetic system as this. whats the point of buying books if you cant put them back on the ipod to listen to. help please

please help i have an ipod touch downloaded several audio books for it. backed up ipod and synced with itunes now the ipod has no audio books on it and they are in itunes but i can not get them back on to the ipod. apples systems are incredibly awkward. any other system allows for mp3's etc to be drag and drop not this long winded and what appears to be a complete waste of time. you buy things and once synced you loose it and cant put it back

Are audiobooks still configured to sync to your iPod Touch via the iPod's Books configuration tab in iTunes? To check, plug your iPod in and select it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will bring you to the Summary tab. Locate the Books tap along the top and select it. Here you can configure how and what audiobooks sync to your device.
Or if you want to manually drag and drop audiobooks onto your iPod, you'll have to enable the device for manual management. See here for more details.

I hate the new flat Firefox icon; how do I change it back to the nice 3d one?

With the upgrade to Firefox 23, you've changed the Firefox icon to a new flat design. It's horrible; I hate it; it looks awful. I want to change it back to the old swish looking 3D style icon. How do I do this please? I'm on Windows 7 64bit.

This page has .png files of old logo 128*128 works well:
https://blog.mozilla.org/faaborg/2009/06/18/the-new-firefox-icon/
Use this page to convert to .ico file:
http://www.convertico.com/
Save the created icon to local computer.
Then download this and use to replace icon, you need to load your FF application, change appropriate icons, and save. FF can not be running when you save.
Also go to desktop and taskbar, right click icon, go to properties, and change icon.
