Use upgrade on Galaxy S3 even though it's pre-order

So my upgrade is July 15th and had been waiting on the S3 to use it on. The new plan effective June 28th apparently makes this not possible? I can get an upgrade early before the 28th since I am in the 30 day window and keep my unlimited data , but is it possible to pre-order the the Galaxy S3 on a early upgrade before the 28th and keep my unlimited? Thanks in advance for any help, I had read in a droid forum that this was possible?

No, if you try to upgrade through the website before it says your line is eligible, it will only offer full price upgrades.  I called to do it over the phone on 6-6, the first day of the SGSIII preorders.  My upgrade eligibility date as shown in the system and website was 6-8.  Two days.  They couldn't do anything with it.  They even transferred me to some sort of manager who explained that their system was set up to not allow even a manager override to force an early (earlier than shown) upgrade on this particular device.  He offered all sorts of things including a Razr Maxx for $69 and no problem doing it two days early....but to pre-order the SGSIII I had to call back two days later to take care of it. 
Some people are being led to believe they can simply ask nicely, have a CSR put a note in their account that they really wanted to upgrade before June 28th but couldn't and think when they call back on say July 2nd that this note will somehow allow them to carry over the unlimited data for them.  I have seen the internal Verizon training document that has all sorts of language on how to convince you that giving up unlimited data and moving to a share plan is a good deal.......
YMMV but they have been very clear in that they aren't allowing UNL data with a subsidized upgrade initiated on or after June 28th

  • I have updates for iMovie and iPhoto but when i try to update them i'm told To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it." even though i bought it and it is on my iMac!

    I have updates for iMovie and iPhoto but when I try to update them through App Store I'm told that "To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it." even though I bought it and it is on my iMac! Any suggestions on what I need to do?

    Hi...
    Delete both apps using this utility >  Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
    That will delete the apps and all associated files.
    Then re download the apps. That will download the most recent version updates included.
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

  • ScanToPCActivationApp.exe is using a lot of memory even though the printer is off.

    ScanToPCActivationApp.exe is using a lot of memory even though the printer is off. 
    Upon computer boot up, Task Manager shows it is using 45mb, and after researching this topic using IE, 10 minutes later it now shows it is using 74 mg, although it did go down to 33 mg a few minutes later, then back up to 51 mg a few minutes after that. 
    Is there a way to keep it from using so much memory when the printer is turned off?. 
    I am running Windows 7 on a Samsung Series 7 laptop and my printer is an HP 8600 All-in-one.  I do use ePrintCenter occasionally, and also have a MacBook Pro (running Mountain Lion), and iPhone 4 (running the latest IOSupdate) and all devices connect to the printer wirelessly. 
    Please let me know if there is more info that you require.  Thank you in advance!

    The best thing to do is uninstall iTunes and install turn to him, but another look from thedownload page do not you reinstall the exe you have already installed ahy maybe youriTunes installer is in bug

  • Still using an old tnsnames.ora even though it was erased

    I downloaded and unzipped 1.2.1-32.13. But it is not reading my new tnsnames.ora.
    My operating system is XP pro.
    Initially I had just the oracle client installed with it's own tnsnames.ora and added sqldeveloper 1.0.0 and then later 1.2.1. I couldn't get my connections to work at all in either one. Unfortunately this was a corporate install that had some "wrapper" on it, not just the Oracle install tool and I removed it by running Oracle install tool and then removing oracle_home from the registry - something initially fishy here because Oracle couldn't completely get rid of it.
    I then installed a full oracle 10g and put a good tnsnames.ora there. Now sqlplus and the database work fine, but sql-developer 1.2.1 still has the old (bad) tnsnames even though the file no longer exists. I did a full search of both C and D drives including system and hidden files for a file with a string that existed only in the old tnsnames file that sqldeveloper still shows and it came up with no matching files. I also can't find it in the registry (didn't expect to tho).
    My previous version of sqldeveloper (1.0.0.15.57) finds the new tnsnames.ora just fine and works well, but the new one is stuck with the old entries and I can't figure out how to tell it to get the new file.
    Thanks for any help.

    I have no defined connections in my sql-developer 1.2.1.No defined connections is consistent with not being able to find a connections.xml.
    ... tried, for example, adding the environment variable TNS_ADMIN to point to my tnsnames.adminI assume that you set %TNS_ADMIN% to the directory rather than the tnsnames.ora file itself.
    I have only one tnsnames.ora and no other files named even remotely like tnsnames and no files containing the string "P902.oracledb" which is the first tns connection shown in sql-developer 1.2.1 list of tns connections. As I said I verified this by doing a Windows search of all files on both drives including system and hidden files.A Windows search for file contents only searches contents for certain file types - I can search a directory containing a tnsnames.ora file for something that is in my tnsnames.ora file but it is not found by the Windows search.
    I suspect there is a registry entry that is pointing to somewhere, so I deleted sqldeveloper ...The TNS stuff for SQL Developer is not based on the SQL Developer install but the Oracle Client install, so reinstalling the same version of SQL Developer will not change the TNS issue.
    There has got to be some other place where this information is stored, but where?Have you checked %USERPROFILE%? This the Win XP version of the $HOME and a tnsnames.ora file in %USERPROFILE% takes precedence over one in %TNS_ADMIN% (it did for me at least).
    ##################### #############P902.oracledb.xxx.com I have not seen that and we have LOTS of comments in our tnsnames.ora file.

  • Will i be able to use my apple gift card on an iPhone 5 pre order?

    I have a gift card for $200 for Apple, I want to know if I pre order the iPhone 5, will I be able to use it at that moment to pay for it?

    Unfortunatly, no. This is becuase in order to prevent fraud and people from buying more than 2 iPhones per customer, they require credit card or debit card, which has customer information by credit card companies. Apple store gift cards, on the other hand, has no customer information in the card, which is essentially the same thing as paying with cash.
    However, credit or debit card policy is in effect for first couple of days, and after the demand dies down, Apple will let you buy iPhone with cash or gift cards, as long as you set up your iCloud account in store (if purchasing iPhone at full price) or setting up your celluar service.
    If, however, you have no credit or debit card with you, then Apple might be willing to grant you a special exception, however, this is only avalible at the Apple Retail Store.

  • I cannot upgrade to FFv4.0, even though I am using OSX 10.5.8, I have 2.25GB RAM and 6.24GB disk space. I can't even give feedback via FF3.6...this is crap!

    I cannot upgrade to FFv4.o.
    According to Mozilla website software specs (http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/4.0/system-requirements/), I have to be running either OSX 10.5 0r 10.6 - I am using 10.5.8. So I assume I have the minimum requirement?
    Under ''recommended'' hardware (not required or minimum) it says I also need 512MB of RAM (I have 2.25GB), and 200MB of disk space (I have 6.24GB).
    I can't even give feedback via FF3.6, which is ridiculous.
    What am I doing wrong?

  • Safari doesn't upgrade from 5.1, even though I use fully updated Mac OSX version 10.6.8

    How do I get Safari to upgrade beyond version 5.1.10?  I have fully updated software, and my OS is OS X, 10.6.8.
    My old Safari version is no longer being supported by some websites.  Searching the internet, I saw that I should re-install the OS X.  I did that, and didn't work. Please help. 

    You need to upgrade the OS past 10.6.8 to get a newer Safari version. Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Mavericks. If you get told it's incompatible, 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 before upgrading. Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.

  • Should I continue using the old battery? Even though I got a new ONE?

    The apple guy have just delivered my new PB 12" battery; I am however thinking of keeping / or not using it for the meantine since I am not using my PB on mobile. I mean, there is no need to unplug it from the power source; The old battery still charges to 100% but shutsdown at 80%. Here are some of my questions:
    - Do I need to calibrate my new battery eventhough I dont intend to use it now? Or shall I leave it in the box since I don't need it yet.
    - Would it be wise not to use my new battery? I am just afraid to buy again a new after several months. Though I know it is kinda stupid not to use it now after I bought it.
    - What would I do with my old battery? it still work for several minutes...(should i use both alternately to prolong the life of my new battery?)
    TIPS TIPS, please. Thanks
    What I am sure of, is I need to used this new battery as its warranty last for only a year...
    Cheers TO ALL!

  • Netscape mail wont use firefox as default browser even though set up as default browser in firefox.

    I want to continue using Netscape Mail 7.2, but when I click on a web link I want it to use Firefox browser. I set Firefox as default browser in Firefox options, but it is not staying set when I look again. I don't know if Netscape is resetting it or what.
    Please help.
    Thanks,

    I had the same problem, I just forgot how to fix it. I did it once a while ago but just recently the problem had returned. The first link in vineelreddyp's post solved the problem for me.
    Just as an FYI for people, when OSX does software updates it includes Safari updates. When it completes a Safari update it resets all the Safari settings (they recently upgraded to Safari 5.0), including default browser.
    So anyway, FYI about that. ;-)

  • Firefox keeps asking me what program to use to open file types even though I have selected one and checked "do this for all files of this type" going foward

    I am working in Windows and every time I open an attachment, Firefox asks what program to use to open files of this type. I always select the proper program and then check the box that says use this program for all future files of this type. In spite of that, the program continues to ask for every file. How do I turn off this feature and just have the program remember the correct program to use for each type of file extension?

    Regardless of your download preferences, web servers can trigger a download prompt by sending either the ''Content-Type: application/octet-stream'' or the ''Content-Disposition: attachment'' header. You can check if that's the case by examining the server response headers in the [https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Tools/Web_Console Web Console].
    For the latter problem install the InlineDisposition add-on and see if it helps.
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/inlinedisposition/
    If the problem persists, post back here with either an example link or a screenshot of the relevant response headers in the Web Console.

  • Use of PIN not allowed even though its set?

    I have a PIN set up on my windows account to make it a little easier to log in with. I use last past and so the current password is incredibly long and impossible memorize. Am I dong something wrong? Id really like to use this PIN when at home. Thanks
    in advance for the assistance.

    Unfortunately, there is a known issue in Build 9926 with using a PIN to logon to your account....it doesn't work.  You need to use your password.  However, you can change your password to one that is easier for your to remember.  Go
    to Settings > Accounts > Sign-in options > Password > Change

  • Am unable to print from Firefox (used to be able to) even though I can print from Safari....what should I try?

    have an up to date Firefox and was able to print to HP printer from internet until recently. I can print from internet using Safari so am sure that the problem is in some setting from Firefox. The printer is chosen in preferences and it seems to send a message to printer but only blank paper comes out....and ideas of what to try would be appreciated!

    Hi timcasey-
    I recommend you read this Support article on troubleshooting printing issues:
