Warning: remove all all plastic as soon as you get new phone

I just took delivery of a new iPhone 4 today that was ordered online through AT&T. After deactivating my 3G and activating the new phone, and copying my 3G data to the new phone, I removed the front and back plastic protective film on the new phone only to find a nice set of scratches in the front glass next to the ear speaker.
Now I get to go through the hassle of dealing with AT&T for an exchange and getting my 3G re-activated until the replacement arrives.
Don't make the same mistake as me. Check your phone for this great quality control first.

Now I'm very confused. I called Apple first, and when I told them I did the purchase through AT&T, they told me to call AT&T.
Reading comprehension skills needs some work.
Copied from my first post in this thread.
+AT&T does not handle iPhone exchanges under Apple's warranty.+
+*You can return the iPhone for payment credit with AT&T - which can be done with AT&T only if your iPhone was purchased from AT&T and order another, or you can call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store of there is one nearby for an exchange under warranty.*+
What you are doing is NOT an exchange under warranty. You are returning your iPhone for payment credit. When returning an iPhone for payment credit, the iPhone and all package contents must be returned to the store where the iPhone was purchased. You are issued a credit for accounting purposes and if you want to purchase another iPhone, you need make another purchase.
Apple handles all iPhone exchanges under Apple's warranty which is also the party that determines if an iPhone is exchanged under warranty, which doesn't require a credit being issued for the original purchase when the original purchase is returned followed by purchasing another iPhone. The iPhone and only the iPhone is exchanged for another with the iPhone only - not all package contents since only the iPhone needs to be exchanged.

Is there a way to make Mailbox automatically update as soon as you get new mail?

I just got an iPhone 4, and I noticed that my mailbox only updates when I open it, even if I received new mail since I last checked. Is there a way to make it automatically update when I get new mail in my inbox? There's sort of no point to alerting me when I get new mail if I'm already in the inbox.
I dunno if it matters, but my mail box is synced to a gmail account.
I also don't really know what my operating system is, but I guess it's iOS 6 since it's a new phone? I don't know how to check.

It depends on how you have mail checking your mail. You mention that you have a Gmail account. Did you set this up as an Exchange account to use Push? If you have mail set to only check manually, then that is what will happen, it will only update manually. If you have it set to one of the other time settings, it will update like that, as that will be the only time it will connect to the mail server, even with the application open.

I damaged my iphone 5 and have been sent a new one, but i do not have enough storage to back up my phone and do not want to pay for more storage. can i get all of my contacts, photos, etc. on my new phone just by logging into my icloud account?

Not photos, just data synced with iCloud shown in Settings>iCloud. If you don't have sufficient storage to back up to iCloud, back up to your computer instead using iTunes (connect you phone to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to ths Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now). Also transfer your purchases to your iTunes library (connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases). If you have photo stream photos older than 30 days tha you wan to save, save these to your camera roll before backing up (tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward facing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll).
When setting up your new phone, when given the option choose Restore from iTunes Backup and restore the backup you made earlier.

Will you recieve your iPod sooner if you order by phone?

I heard that you will get your iPod sooner if you order by phone rather than online because of processing delays. Anyone know if this is true or not? Thanks.

Im really not sure, i suggest gettin it from the apple store, i ordered my 5g online 10/17 and on 10/19 was still porcessing called my apple store b4 and they said they didnt have it, called back on the 10/19 out of curiosity and they now have a "signifcant amount" in stock as i was told. Immediately cancelled online order and went to the apple store later that day and got my 5g, goin on 3 days now 1567 songs, 14 Music Videos, 1 Tv Show (Prison Break S01E01). And still growing, front screen still has plastic, and back has 4 hairline scratches already(not noticeable), awating invisble sheild. Whats funny about scratches you have no idea when or where it happened no matter how hard you try and take care of it.

HT5833 What happens if you remove a profile from ipad? Can you get it back?

What happens if you remove a profile from iPad? Can you get it back?

Hi Gumby694,
You can only get the profile back if you plug into a computer that has the configuration profile in Apple Configurator or get the profile wirelessly from an MDM.
Hope this answers your question.

I clicked on erase all content and setting.how do i get my phone working again

i clicked on erase all contents and setting, hoping it will just remove contacts and personal info since i was giving away the phone. now i just have an apple logo on a lit background. how do i get the phone working again.?

You were hoping to give the iPhone away right, which means you aren't worried about preserving data?
If that is the case, plug the iPhone into a computer with iTunes, if doesn't automatically ask if you want to restore the iPhone then we need to put the iPhone into forced recovery mode.
You can do that by keeping the iPhone plugged in and pressing and holding the sleep/wake button (the top button) and the home button (round one with the square in it) together until you see an apple logo. Once you see the apple logo let go off the sleep/wake button but keep holding the home button.
Once iTunes says it's detected an iPhone in recovery mode you can let go off the home button and then just restore the iPhone as new.
The added bonus of restoring the iPhone as new means you get rid of any software faults the iPhone may have.

HT4859 how do i get all my data from icloud downloaded on my new phone?

i broke my iphone 4 and i want all my contacts and photos on my new phone or atleast on verizon so that i can see them. is there any way for this?

If your new phone is an iPhone, just set up the same iCloud account on it in Settings>iCloud, then turn iCloud syncing for contacts, etc. to On (when prompted, choose Merge) as well as photo stream.

Are all your apps compatible with the iPhone--are some iPad only apps?

Have all your apps been purchased with the same AppleID?

TS3212 trying to activate my iPhone 4S when I try to download iTunes on my Windows 7 computer I keep getting message telling me to verify that the package exists or contact the application vendor. All I want to do is activate my new phone. What am I doin

I was excited when my iPhone 4sarrived yesterday. I charged it but today when I tried to download iTunes in order to activate the phone I found that I was unable to download it successfully. I keep getting a message that tells me to Verify that the package exists or contact the application vendor. I have no idea how to do any of this. I was downloading from the AT&T support site.

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

I upgraded from an android to an new iphone 4s. I have an itunes account and library but I am reluctant to connect my phone to my computer in fear of all of my itunes music syncing to my new phone.

Is it possible to choose which songs from my itunes library to add to my phone? Also, my pictures are stored on my computer but not my itunes library, can I pick and choose which pictures to upload to my new iphone 4s? Any help/advice would be appreciated. Thanks

Under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, you have the option to transfer your entire music library or selected playlists, artists, genres, albums.
iTunes does not store photos. iTunes serves as the transfer conduit to transfer photos from your computer to your iPhone, which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
If you manually manage photo storage on your computer, create a folder on your computer to place the named folder of photos you want transferred to your iPhone. Select the parent folder under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.
