Upgrade in UK Apple shop?

Does anyone know if you can buy the 3G phone at an Apple shop and then either upgrade from the old iPhone there, or take it to an O2 shop to upgrade? Or do you have to do the whole thing in an O2 shop?
I've phoned O2 but even they don't seem to know for sure!
Thanks.

i spoke to the apple store in lakeside, Essex and the lady i spoke to said no, which to be honest is a pita,
and i feel that being a loyal apple customer and one of the people who stood in line last november to buy the orignal iPhone on day1 i am being punished and for said loyalty because i cannot get a white 16GB from o2 or CPW........whould it have been to hard to put an o2 representative in each apple store for 6 months to handle upgrades?
worse case, you buy the phone in the apple shop, they give you a certain receipt and you go down to the o2 shop to complete the upgrade, but no!
grumble grumble!
so there all theese iphones in all the apple stores and us LOYAL customers cannot upgrade.....disgraceful!

Apple shop upgrade.

The Apple shop upgraded the RAM in my 2012 Mac Mini from 4GB to 8GB but the 8GB RAM is 1333 Mhz whereas I assume the 4GB was 1600 Mhz as advertised. Was I not shortchanged?

Go to http://www.crucial.com/ download and run the System Scanner to verify what memory is actually installed in case there is an error on your invoice. If it confirms the wrong memory is installed take your Mac Min back to the Apple store and complain.

How can I upgrade my iCloud account's storage but pay for the upgrade with another Apple ID?

I want to upgrade my iCloud account so that I can back-up my iPhone, however I would like to pay for the upgrade using a different Apple ID than the Apple ID associated with my iCloud account. I can not figure out how to do this, when I hit buy after selecting my desired plan it wants be the buy the upgrade with the Apple ID my iCloud account uses. Please help!

I don't think that's possible. (If you're trying to get it on another credit card, one option would be to purchase an iTunes gift card with it and redeem it to create an iTunes store credit. Storage upgrades will first charge your iTunes store credit before charging your card.)

I have an older I Mac operating system 10.6.8 and want to upgrade. I've been told that the only upgrade available for my machine is 10.7.5. On what website can I find this upgrade or how do I find this upgrade on the Apple website?

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

My daughters iPad has just been factory restored from the apple shop, she was using my iTunes account with her email. When trying to create her own iTunes as she is the correct age it has come up that her email is already being used. How do we do this with he same email address

Hello spooner68,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to create an Apple ID for your daughter. Because her email address is associated with your Apple ID, you are receiving the message that the email address is in use.
To remedy this, you will have to first remove her email address from your account using steps 1-3 of the section titled "How to add an additional email address that is already associated with another Apple ID" in the article below and then attempt to create her Apple ID with her email address:
How to add an additional email address that is already associated with another Apple ID
If you have an email address that is already associated with another Apple ID, you may need to remove it from your other Apple ID before you can add it to your preferred Apple ID.
Sign in to My Apple ID with the Apple ID that has the email address already associated with it.
Find the email address that you want to move to your preferred Apple ID, then click Delete.
Click Save Changes, then click Sign Out at the top of the page.

I bouhght my computer a week ago and I spilled a liquid on my keyboard , and i would like to know how much coast to repaid the damage , i didnt buy in the offical apple shop.

i bouhght my Macbook pro retina display 13 Inch i5 a week ago and I spilled a liquid on my keyboard , and i would like to know how much coast to repair the damage in apple store , i didnt buy in the offical apple shop. Some places are asking to pay 620 Pounds.

The only way you can get a valid estimate is by someone examining the MBP directly. Since no one on these forums can see or examine your MBP, you will need to get this infomation from a qualified repair shop. It seems that you already have secured one estimate. You can also bring the MBP to an Apple store and have a genius bar examine it for FREE.
Ciao.

I am trying to update my iTunes to 10.5.1 so that I can upgrade my 3GS phone but am getting the following error message when trying to install the itunes: Install step failed: Run pre upgrade script for apple mobile device support. Contact software manufacturer for assistance. I am on a MacBook pro running 10.5.8 OS. Has anyone seen this before and how can I get it resolved.
Thanks for your help in advance....

Did you ever figure out the problem? "Contact Software Manufacturer"?? That sounds ominous... I've got the same issue and I'm pretty durn aggravated right about now....
Thanks!

HT1338 I have an HP Printer/scanner, and since upgrading to Mountain Lion I can no longer scan on my HP. HP tells me that I can get an upgrade app from 'Apple Software Upgrade' . Does anyone know how to do this?

I have an HP Printer/scanner, and since upgrading to Mountain Lion I can no longer scan on my HP. HP tells me that I can get an upgrade app from 'Apple Software Upgrade' . Does anyone know how to do this?

HP couldn't find its own apps with both hands and a flashlight.
As of Lion all scanning functions are incorporated natively in OS X. You can scan three ways:
Use Preview: File > Import from scanner
Use Image Capture
(Preview and Image Capture are both in your Applications folder.)
System Preferences > Print & Scan. Select your HP and use the Scan tab.
If you have HP's "Image Zone" software installed, you no longer need it and it no longer works anyway.

My third party lightning sd card reader sold to me in the Singapore Apple shop no longer works w

My third party lightning sd card reader sold to me in the Singapore Apple shop no longer works under iOS 7

Having the same problem with one I bought with my iPad in the Regent Street Apple Store. Not sure why it wouldn't work unless the OS now needs the lightening Connector certificate to use a card now.
I am hoping there will be a fix real soon or maybe someone knows a work around?

My computer has been seen at Genius bar 6 times for freezing up, reloaded all original settings and even went to the apple shop where they replaced the battery and logic board. Still freezes after I try to reload iTunes stuff and app stuff from apple

my computer has been seen at Genius bar 6 times for freezing up, reloaded all original settings, all of their diagnostics, and they even sent it to the apple shop where they replaced the battery and logic board. Still freezes after I try to reload iTunes stuff and app stuff from apple, especially iPhoto which is seems to refuse to load and then begins freezing up all over again. Anyone else have this problem. Other than this, I have had absolutely no problems with this computer. Now, it's a file of junk.

Hi Ronald ...
Have you checked lately to see how much free space there is on the disk? Especially since iPhoto freezes at launch ...
Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage
Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.
And make sure the OS X software is up to date.
Click the Apple  top left in your screen.
From the drop down menu click: Software Update
If you have anti virus software installed or are using third party Mac cleaning utiliites, that may be part and parcel of the your problems.

My iOS remains the same as whats inside my iPhone I bought it 18months ago, which is version 4.2.1, I am told by an Apple shop that its too old to do a proper update, unless all my data will have to be erased !! is this true ? if so, how to get round it

Be sure to do a backup before updating as protection. Photos should
be synced with your computer, music should be in iTunes, documents
should be backed up on your computer as should contacts in whatever
program you use on your computer. You should already have backups
of your important information to prevent loss in case of theft, crash,
physical damage. The question is not if your hard drive will crash but
when, and you iPhone is not a backup device nor fit for the only
source of any document, picture, music, movie, contact or otherwise
irreplaceable information.

MacBook 2008 wifi suddenly stopped working and says no wifi hardware. Took it to an apple shop, they said it could be the airport card but wouldn't do anymore then that. Any help on how to fix this? How do I know if it is the airport card or not?

is there anything else I can try first?
thanks

If the technician at the shop is competent, he has given you a diagnosis that should have identified the problem. You could run the Apple Hardware Test to verify the findings:
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201257
Note the Apple Hardware Test is not definitive.
Go to the iFixit.com and Powerbookmedic.com web sites. They have parts and installation instructions. To install an Airport card is fairly easy.

Apple shop changed my iphone 3gs today, got home and cannot join my wifi. both my mac and ipad is working on wifi. tried rebooting, resetting still doesnt hold the wifi, it's there for a sec then its not connected.help please?

Hi,
Apple shop exchanged my iphone 3gs today. got home but it doesnt pick up the wifi. first the correct supplier appears then it says not connected.
both my mac and ipad is working on wifi (so did the previous phone) i ve tried rebooting, tried reset supplier...nothing works. can someone help please?
thanks

Yes, they should be able to verify that WiFi is working properly. If I just got a new phone & it didn't work perfectly, right out of the box, before I started restoring or whatever, I'd be right back where I got the phone.
