What does it take to work for Apple, Google and etc?
Hello everybody.... i am quite intrested (ain't we all) to work for Apple. I'am currently 17 studying at college Information Technology and Business. I will get to university hopefully in a year or so... but i do not know what to study there so that i can land a job at Apple or Google. I know you need to be the best of the best and i am willing to work really hard to get there, but does anyone know what degree i could choose to work for these and if it is good for me to try and get an Internship at Apple? Thank you in advance for your help.

What does it take to work for apple
I've always been very passionate and glued to the tv every WWDC given by apple. I believe apple is the most accomplishable consumer-electronics company in the world. Lol not Microsoft! I just want to know what it really takes to work for such a great company!
Skills they will need.
Technological skills such as electronics design. HR management skills for its HR department. Financial skills for its accounting department. -
I can't get FaceTime or iMessage to connect, I enter valid password (tested and works for Apple account) and it won't connect. I have checked all settings, upgrades iOS to 8.3 rebooted, changed Apple acount PW still wont connect. My internet connection is fine Safari works and I can access all sites. I have an iPad 2. Any help on this will be greatly appreciate. iPad 2, iOS 8.3
This is an ongoing problem as you will see by searching the forum.
Out of curiosity, do you have 2 step verification enabled? It was recently extended to include iMessage & FaceTime & I'm wondering if it might be causing some of the issues that some users are experiencing. -
Why does it take so long for Apple TV to stream a movie?
I have a really fast internet connection on Verizon TV (75 over 35) but when I purchased a movie to stream over Apple TV earlier this evening, it said it would take over 48 hours before I could watch it! What gives? Not happy with this at all!!! Who can I complain to? Don't wanna any for a movie I can't watch tonight.
With my setup it takes 3 seconds to duplicate a 3MB file in iPhoto. A lot will depend on the processor speed (we're the same) memory (again the same) and free space on the HD (I've got much more than 20G). My Mac, however, is a G5 and that may be the difference.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file. -
HT201328 Why does it take so long for Apple to unlock an iPhone 3GS.
I have been trying to unlock my iPhone 3GS whrough my provider since 31st August, and they are still waiting for a information from Apple. Why does it take so long? Surely this will put people (i.e. me) from getting another iPhone in the future.
The carrier unlocks the phones... once the carrier officially unlocks they send an email to apple... Apple's database picks up this info from the imei number... it's all done computerized. Apple has nothing to do with unlocking whatsoever!
The contract is between the customer and the carrier. It would be illegal for apple to unlock a phone considering Apple is not a part of any contract!
Apple is a manufactor and support for their products... not a carrier!
Carriers push this crap on Apple when they know good and well they are the ones who unlock! Customers can call Apple to see if it's unlocked, but it's a database... they have no way of unlocking or locking phones! -
What does "Authorized as" field works for when creating an alert?
Do someone knows when to use the "Authorized as" field in the alerts? I have created an alert to know when a work item has been assigned to an specific team but alerts are not being sent.
I configured like this:
TeamProject = XXX
AND Team Changes To YYYY
AND Work Item Type = CUSTOMTASKTYPE
AND State = To Do
Thanks for your help!Hi JOSEDTFS,
Based on the description, seems you want to create alert when a work item is assigned to the specific team and make the team members get notified. But your filter is incorrect, please check the screenshot as below:
You can create a work item alert by using the template of "when a work item is assigned to me". Then click "Edit" after the field of “Send to” to add the account
of team members in your team.
Best regards,

How did they create Java and keep coming out with new versions? Heh, they can't write Java to create it, you know? Or can they? Lets discuss.

What does it take to make "find me" work
what does it take to make "find me" work on a mac mini.
there are 3 users. Would I need to make an apple ID for the administrator.
If it gets stolen, I can track it down.Yes, system preferences>iCloud> only thing shows up is find my iphone.
I think I found the problem. even though it only list >>>>iPhone<<<<, it still found my "laptop" when I clicked on it.
As long as I have wifi turned on is the trick I think.
Thanks so much!!! -
I work for a charity and am organising a fund raiser. Does apple donate appliances to charities?
Well the title says it all!! I work for a charity and am organising a fund raiser and I'd like to know if Apple would donate a device to us to use as a prize for our fund raiser.
The charity I work for is based in the UK and our main aims and objectives are to get as many young people of all backgrounds on the water to take part in various watersports such as sailing, windsurfing and stand up paddleboarding. These experiences help young people to gain new skills, maintain an active lifestyle, become well balanced and mature individuals and also just shows them a good time. It is a very important part of life to have fun and experience new things and all of our staff and volunteers are passionate about what we do.Apple don't generally do that, but you could always try contacting their European HQ:

Hey guys
I have iCaht AV 2.1 and a Powerbook g4 etc etc and I am trying to set up a chat with my Dad in Australia on an IBM thinkpad running Windows XP and AIM Trillion or whatever it is.
What does it take to ACTUALLY have a 2-way Video chat coz NOTHING we are doing is working.... I have read REAMS of stuff on this forum - Ralph has established my computer can actually recieve and send both video and audio... but it just will NOT work. What is the BEST modem and broadband provider here in the UK and in Australia???
What does it take to actually make it work???
If nothing works - I want my money back from buying a completely USELESS iSight to do this..... It would be easier to book satellite time and use a flyaway kit complete with crews either end than to try to use this to have 2-ways......
AAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
G4 PowerBook 1.25gHz Mac OS X (10.3.9)Among the reams, have you looked at Mac Video Chat with PCs?
Both of you should test with others. You can find some robot ("Autoresponder") and human Buddy Names for iChat Test here if you need them. Testing will help you find whose system needs the most attention.
Since you have now apparently connected with Ralph, it seems your computer can connect. Has your Dad tried others? Perhaps the problem is at Dad's end. If so, the list of things for the PC to check in my link above should be helpful.
Check your Broadband Speed. Some Australian broadband can be on the slow side. Therefore, if your Dad already subscribes to the maximum bandwidth that is available from his Australian ISP, he should be particularly careful that his AIM "Video Quality" is not set too high (as explained in the "Mac Video Chat with PCs" link.) -
I have been unsuccessfully trying to extend the wifi of my Time 2T Capsule with an Airport Extreme 2nd Gen. It works for a while and then loses configuration. I have done everything possible, disconnected it, reset it but it keeps failing, what to do?
What model and firmware is the 2TB TC?
What firmware is the AE?
Does the AE get good signal from the TC in its current location?
Signal can only be extended that is received intact.
Is it extending on 5ghz? As I remember it a Gen2 AE is only single band, although you can choose either 2.4ghz or 5ghz.
I am fairly sure you are going to tell me your TC is AC model..
I would do a couple of things..
1. Fix the wireless name, make it short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
2. Fix the wireless channel for 2.4ghz so it is not going to jump around.
3. Get real results from the AE in its current location for signal strength.. this is really only possible on v5 utility. And that is a double pain with Mavericks because you cannot use it.
Apple have removed all the useful diagnostics from the airport utility. There is next to nothing left. So you need to use the computer and its diagnostics to find signal levels in the location.

HT4914 How does the payment method work for iTunes Match?
How does the payment method work with iTunes Match. For example, if you have a gift card, does it take it out of that. Or is there tax? What if you cancel your subscription in the middle of the year, does it take the money for that year or not? If someone could answer those questions it would be greatly apreciated. And if anyone has their own questions, feel free to ask. Thank you.

I work for a university and we have a legal apple vendor who we get to buy all our Apple products from.Can we (university) re-install macosx for a replacement hard drive once the hard drive gets replaced? How can we as the university IT department legally re-install macosx on a imac,macbook, macbookair etc. We would like to load customized macosx imaging software onto the mac machines(imac, macbook, etc ). The university has its own IT workshop and we would like our users to get their laptops back in the shortest turnaround time.
We're not "Apple Inc." here, just users like you.
So whatever we say is not an official statement, nor does it in any way, shape, or form represent the official or unofficial policies or opinions of Apple, Inc.
But I'll offer my quick opinion, having worked in information-systems and technology support in a wide variety of environments over many years.
Question #1. "NO!"
No tech support nor repair facility, even if "Apple-authorized", is automatically empowered to install or upgrade OS X on a replacement hard drive just because it is more convenient or time-efficient. When the repair is complete, the student should be expected to (re)install the operating system themself*!
Nurturing students (and occasionally dragging them, screaming and kicking!) as budding computer-, tablet-, smartphone-users to become digitally self-sufficient is a worthy goal that any institution of higher education must pursue.
Making students totally dependent upon "Mother Support" for every little thing about their personal digital devices is a grave disservice to both the students and the people who provide the support. Support-mothered students do become life-long digital dependents, instead of taking the required time to learn enough about the care and feeding of their digital "pets" to sustain them. Entreprenurial students may choose to become 'experts' and actually help each other with their devices, and even make money doing it. Some students may even be inspired/coerced to pursue a career in tech support!!!
*By all means, if the student requests additional help (re-installing the OS), then the University should charge the student a fair price for the service, provided that the user provides the OS on original or upgrade media, or in the case of the 'digital download' upgrades (for OS X 10.7 and 10.8) provides proof of purchase for the OS upgrade, or the original purchase receipt or other recognized documentation for the purchase of the computer showing the version of OS installed when purchased. Students need to learn about personal responsibility, economics ("What is MY time really worth"?), and proper record-keeping too!
Question #2. Regarding the customized imaging software, provide it on media or a link for students to download and install it. Make it their responsibility!

im using an iphone 4s with the latest firmware which is 6.1.3 but my wifi button keeps going grey how can i fix it? i rested network connections and it worked for a while and went grey again,what can i do?
Have you worked through the Troubleshooting iOS and WiFi knowledge base article? If not, see if there is info in there that might help.
Is the WiFi greyed out on all WiFi networks or just the one? If it does this on all then there may be a hardwaer problem that needs attention from the techs at an Apple store genius bar.
Before that, however, try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if it appears. That clears a lot of iOS hang ups that occur.
