Transferring contract at an Apple store when upgrading to a new iPhone 4?
Hi,
I've reserved an iPhone 4 for pick-up in store and was wondering what the procedure was to change telecom provider. I'm currently with O2 (but out of contract) but may switch to Vodafone if the tariff is better. During the reservation procedure is said you could choose a contract during pick-up but was wondering if I needed to do anything at my end i.e. grab a PACS number?
TIA
I doubt all authorized resellers will get the new phone on release date. Your best bet is an AT&T store or an Apple store(reserve ahead on the 15th). If you want this to go smoothly, pre-order on the 15th for pick-up at your Apple store on release date or have it shipped to you.

Will apple store transfer my music to new iphone for me
will the apple store transfer my music to new iphone for me?
Do this:
Create a separate user account for you. Launch iTunes, then Store>Authorize this Computer. Then:
By design, the iphone will sync itunes content with one computer at a time. Any attempt to sync such content with a second computer will result in ALL itunes content being first erased from your phone & then replaced with the content from the second computer. This is a design feature and cannot be overridden. Because you are using a new computer, your phone will see this computer as a "new" computer. The itunes content sync is one way: computer to phone. If you have photos that were synced to your phone or music ripped on your own that were not backed up, you will first have to extract them from your phone using third party software, before you do anything else, as Apple makes no provision to do so:
http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php
Once you've done that, do the following in the order specified:
1. Disable auto sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected under Preferences>Devices in itunes(under the edit menu if using Windows).
2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in the supported applications(Outlook, Windows Address Book) on your computer. These entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
3. Connect your phone, iTunes running, do not sync at this point.
4. Store>Authorize this computer.
5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on your phone will be in your itunes library).
6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
7. Right click again and select backup.
8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore your itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding your contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
You should be good to go. -

HT4623 is my contract completed so that I can upgrade to the new iPhone?
I have the iphone 4S, is my contract completed so I can upgrade to the new 5S?
You don't even know that there will be a 5s until after today's event and it probably won't be available straight away - you'll have to wait for anything to launch, so you might have a long wait before you upgrade.
Other than that, you need to ask your phone company/carrier whether you can upgrade or not - only they can tell you that and nobody else. -

how do i get a recovery disk or download for os 10.5.8? my system was installed by an apple store when replacing my hard drive. i did not get a backup disk. macbook is a 1.1 from mid 2006 and 10.5.8 is as far as i can go.. use this as a utility backup when my new macbook pro with mt lion screws something up---which seems like a daily event. do i have to install a lesser version of leopard then install the update. does software update even work anymore for leopard? im so in the dark and when i look at the console i just freak.
Hello, your best bet would be to clone your drive to an external drive, which will be bootable.
Get carbon copy cloner to make an exact copy of your old HD to the New one...

You're not likely to see any updates show up for 10.5.x
The very first MacBook 1,1s can actually run 10.6, which is updatable to 10.6.8, but will only run in 32 bit mode on yours.
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook/specs/macbook_1.83.html
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
* Mac computer with an Intel processor
* 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
* 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
* DVD drive for installation
* Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
* Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

Do Apple Stores stock upgraded MB Pro's?
Hey I was wondering of anyone knows about an Apple Store which stocks an upgraded MacBook Pro.
I'm after the 15" i7 with the 7200 rpm HDD and Hi Res glossy display upgrade.
But a friend of mine ordered the exact same spec online yesterday and the estimated shipping date is 20th Sept and delivery date of 27th.
I know they have to build it first then ship it from China, but that's way too long.
So does anyone know if any Apple Store stock upgraded models at all or offer a hard drive upgrade in store?They stock basic configurations of each model. They do not stock models that require online modification. Those are called CTO - Configured To Order - orders. Those must be ordered online.

I have a problem with Apple store when installing large application (example xCode): The system crashes.
It begun with 10.8 usualy with few tries it work but with 4.6 no succes.
Any suggestion?If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out these instructions.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Select the most recent panic log under System Diagnostic Reports. Post the entire contents — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post shutdownStall, spin, or hang reports. -

If I buy a iphone 6 on contract from an Apple store will it be locked
If I buy a iphone 6 on contract from a Apple store will it be locked?
to lock with the first sim one put in makes not sense
unlocked phones cost the true price of the phone
the reason why locked phones cost more is because the carrier they are locked to pay the difference and expect to make their profit by the users usage
to lock automatic to the first sim one put in would mean that carrier would not had paid the difference so apple would not get anything out of it
and the user would not get anything out of it, the only who would, would be that random carrier sounds like a lotto system for sim locks -
A friend of my daughter's used my mac computer when she got her new iphone to help set it up. Now that I have a new iphone, her apps and all the app store information is stuck on my phone. Her app account keeps showing up when I try to install something new, and I obviously do not have her password. How do I get this off my phone??
Open iTunes on the computer. Without any iPhone plugged in, go to iTunes' menu and do Store > Sign Out.
The click the iTunes Store row on the left of the iTunes display. You can then sign on from the signon row on the right side of the display using the correct Apple ID and password. Then you'll be all set! -
I was not warned that audiobooks are a one time download only for those using iCloud to backup. As a result I've lost my audiobook when switching to a new iPhone after the previous phone was damaged.
Will Apple refund me for the audio book?
the irony of this is that the lost audio books is Steve Jobs biography!
Starting to wonder about the benefits of Android :-/If you haven't been keeping a backup of your downloads (none of your iTunes downloads are included in an iCloud backup, apps, music etc are only redownloadable whilst they remain in your country's store) then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a redownload : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
