What happens if i buy a iphone 4 and they left their icloud on and i cant open it

please help

You have a problem.
iOS 7 includes Activation Lock, an anti-theft mechanism. I wonder if you purchased a stolen iPhone - and are out of luck.

What happens after you buy an iphone?

Say i go into the apple store and buy an iphone, how will they make it so that i can text etc on it?

They can sign you up with the supported wireless provider of your choice
with the features you desire. Or you can purchase the iPhone outright and
do the setup on your own with the provider of your choice.
To get the subsidized price (if available where you are), you must either set up
with a wireless provider at the Apple store or order the iPhone directly from your
wireless provider.

What happens when you buy unlocked iPhone 5?

When I go to buy a unlocked iPhone, do I need to give Apple a phone number as well? Or do I just go in, buy unlocked iPhone, and walk out of apple store with iPhone and later can put in SIM card?

Maybe we should establish an iPhone "hedge" market when the iPhone 6 comes around...

My iPhone, iPad and G5 cant open PDF or Word attachments on emails generated from a specific PHP written system.

I use iPhone, iPad and G5 receiving emails generated from a PHP written system hosted on 1and1. I cant open PDF or Word attachments on any emails. The attachment's file names are displayed at the bottom of the email with no link. No problem on Windows Outlook. Is it me, 1and1 or the PHP system!? Does Apple OS handle email attachments differently to Windows? Help!?

Followed your instructions on my iPhone running 4.3.5 and my iPad which is running iOS 5 beta 4... IT WORKS!
Thanks a lot!

No Apple Store within 150 miles of me...what happens if I buy a Retina MBP and need the battery changed??

I have a vintage 2006 17" MBP that has been a steadfast and reliable companion for years. It's aging, and will probably need replacing this year. I'm a wildlife artist and need something that accompanies me into the field, AND allows me to do a lot of image editing (Lightroom) at home and in the studio...so portability, horsepower, and screen size all matter.
I'm deeply concerned about purchasing a Retina MBP, since there is no Apple Store closer than a 3 hour drive to me - if I need the battery changed, how the **** do I do that? I can't imagine living without a computer during the days it would take to ship something back to Apple galactic HQ for repair, and I also can't imagine how Apple can in good conscience design something so unserviceable. My current MBP went through the bulging-battery thing a year ago, so it's easy to conceive of something happening to a new machine.
It's probably obvious, but I purchase the most I can afford at one time and then keep it for years before upgrading. I have to say I'm rather depressed about the current choices right now.
Thoughts?? ...and thank you for reading!

All MacBook Pro's come with Apple only servicable batteries now.
However the newer batteries are much better than the older verisons and less likley to fail.
For instance my 2 year old 17" has a 99% charge with only 14 cycles, but I'm on power most of the time.
Problem for you is the life of the charge and not being able to put in a replacement charged battery on extended trips in the bush.
Also the Internet is required to reinstall the opearating system now, no disks.
Since there is no Apple laptop that can meet your requirements without dragging a portable gas generator with you...
I can only suggest you find a suitable PC laptop that can switch the charged batteries on location to keep on using it.
I highly suggest Windows 7, it's more closer to what your used to using on the Mac far as operating systems UI goes.
Windows 8 is a nightmare and it's adoption rate is very poor like Vista was.
Perhaps you may think about getting a wonderful iMac for your office.

I bought a HD and the Itunes Stores say that the movie (Pretty Women) has Itunes Extras. Why I can not find it? It is a mistake from Apple? What happen if I buy the movie because the Extras and now I can not watch it? I have an Ipad last generation.

What version of iOS do you have on your iPad (Settings > General > About > Version), and is it connected to wifi ?
From Buy and play movies with iTunes Extras - Apple Support :
Here’s what you need to stream the new iTunes Extras:
Mac using OS X Mavericks v10.9.3 or later and iTunes 11.3 or later
PC using iTunes 11.3 or later
Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation or later) using Apple TV software 6.2 or later
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iOS 8 or later (You need to connect to Wi-Fi. Extras won't appear if you're connected to a cellular network.)
An active Internet connection
You can use the steps below on your Apple TV, Mac, PC, or iOS device for any purchased, HD movie that features Extras:
On your Apple TV, select Movies, then select your movie to see the Extras menu. Extras aren't available from the Computer tile on Apple TV (Home Sharing).
On your Mac or PC, open iTunes and go to the Movies section in your iTunes library. Double-click your movie. If there's no Internet connection, the Extras menu will be skipped. The movie will immediately play if you already downloaded it.
On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, tap the Videos app, then tap your movie. If you're connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi, the Extras menu will appear.

Hi, sallymaesmag.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you are in the Philippines, check to see if the country is changed in the iTunes Store settings on the iOS device. These steps will show you how to change the preference.
Change your iTunes Store country
Sign in to the account for the iTunes Store region you'd like to use. TapSettings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region.
Follow the onscreen process to change your region, agree to the terms and conditions for the region if necessary, and then change your billing information.

Once you make the change attempt to download applications again.

What happens when i restore my iPhone?

i was curious as to what happens when you plug your iphone into itunes and click restore.
will i lose all my contacts and pictures?
and will it make the backlight on my iphone work?

A restore may help your iphone - it is one of the troubleshooting steps. Page 141 of the manual:
"If you restore, the latest version of iPhone software is reinstalled, default settings are
restored, and data stored on iPhone is deleted, including downloaded applications,
songs, videos, contacts, photos, calendar information, and any other data. In iTunes,
you can also restore from a backup without deleting data stored on iPhone.
Deleted data is no longer accessible via the iPhone user interface, but is not
permanently erased from your iPhone until it is overwritten by new data. For
information about permanently erasing all content and settings, see “Resetting
iPhone” on page 109. "
http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPhone_UserGuide.pdf
I gave you the link to the Apple article to determine hardware failure earlier. If those steps or a reset, restore don't work then you need to call or visit Apple for a replacement.

What happens if i stop my iphone cloud backup?

Depends which Reset you are talking about...
The 2 listed below will cause No Loss of Content...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If no joy...
Reset all settings
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.

What happens when i rest my iphone 3gs ?

iTunes will backup the device.
The device is erased completely.
The current version of iOS is downloaded.
iOS is then installed.
You then get an option to install the previous backup or as a New device.

I'm guessing you meant to type "gift card". Yes you can, I do it all the time. Buy the card, download to your iTunes account and buy till you go blind! Or drain the money whichever comes first. Cheers.

Hi tinashah817,
Was this book downloaded using iBooks, or from another application? If it was from iBooks you will need to install that application to delete it.
See this article about managing your iBooks library on your iPhone -
iBooks: Tips for managing your iBooks library and storage on iOS devices
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5544
Once the book has been deleted from the iPhone you can uninstall the iBooks application if you so desire.

What happens when you buy from a third party vender

I am wondering what happens when you buy a macbook form a third party vender. In my case it is amazon.com. I am reading about people returning their macbook's to apple for a refund due to the high pitched whine everyone is talking about. My understanding is that we can still send them to apple to get fixed for the noise, but even if they can't fix it we still can't get a refund right? If I try to return it to Amazon as a defective product who decides if it is? Apple or Amazon?
Kalel

Amazon's return policy on computers doesn't exclude any brands, so I'd say that you could return it. Here's a link to it if you'd like to read it:
