What is included in the "Cellular Network Data" Received total?

I just purchased a new IPhone 4 from AT&T and within two days the Usage for Cellular Network Data>Received was 1.7GB. The "Technical Support" guy at AT&T had absolutely no idea what the number included. I am on a 2GB plan and was obviously distressed to see it only took two days to get near the total. I had my WiFi on and thought I was downloading over it, not the cellular network.
The Tech Support guy kept telling me I had only 1.7MB so far to be billed on and wondered (didn't know for sure) if the 1.7GB received included the WiFi data. Am I reading the number wrong?
Help - I don't want any cost overruns!

What is "Other"
It’s generally a combination of local caches from apps, browsers, mail, Messages, Reading List, saved games, app-specific documents and data, notes, and voice memos.
You can backup and restore to reduce "other" but they will start building up over time.

HT4528 One external app on 1st gen iPhone 5. Cellular Network Data Sent = 1.2GB. What could cause such a high usage?

One external app on 1st gen iPhone 5. Cellular Network Data Sent = 1.2GB. What could cause such a high usage?

I had the same issue, whilst my IPhone 5 iOS 7.0.2 was in my pocket all morning, I checked the usage on traffic monitor and it said data usage 1.1 GB. My setting are:
icloud:
mail:off, contacts:on, calenders:on, reminders:on, Safari:off, Notes:on, passbook:on, photos:off, Documents & Data:on(whatsapp only), Find my Iphone:on
itunes & apps store:
music:off, Video:off itunes match:off Automatic downloads music:off, apps:off, books:off, update:off
Podcasts: Auto downloads:off
itunes wifi sync: last sync Friday 11 Oct 2013 (not this morning)
I am using an inmarsat satelite connection if anybody knows any other settings that could cause vast amounts of data to download please advise. After thought would'nt it be nice if apple had an all in one feature(switch) that only allowed Push notifications and safari usage through. Thanks in advance.

Is there any chance that you must have it in the package of your provider as an option?

HT1386 what is included in the "other" category

I am trying to find out what is included in the yellow "other" category on my iPad. I have more space taken up by that than anything else.

This is copied from one of the countless discussions about the "other" issue on iDevices.
That large of "other" is corrupt data. Try restoring your iPad from backup first, followed by syncing your content back to the device. If restoring from backup does not fix things, you will have to restore as a new device to get rid of it. There is no way to directly delete it, other than restoring your iPad.
Other includes app data and files, Safari Bookmarks and history, Notes, Calendar entries, text messages and email messages - basically the non media items on the iPad. If it is taking up that much room - more than anything else on your iPad - you should follow the suggestion I posted above.

WiFi vs Cellular Network Data

Alrighty, well I just purchased an iPhone 4 and extremely satisfied. I do have one question, however, that I am trying to figure out and can't for the life of me figure out.
I have a minimal data plan and in the hopes of saving that for the road, obviously I had the phone connect to my home network. It connected and shows the name of the network. Then I went and did some basic surfing and checked the USAGE data for Cellular Network Data and saw that it was still going up. After this I went into network settings and literally turned off Cellular Network Data, but upon doing that Google Maps won't load, nor will any data application (i.e. Safari, Mail, etc...)
I am sure it has an active connection to my WiFi network, so I am just not sure where the problem lies.

It's just cellular data. But applications on your phone can use data in background when the phone is asleep, and WiFi is off when the phone is asleep so all background data will go over the cellular network.

I'm having problems with my email account. I receive emails when I'm in a wifi zone. But if the wifi is turned off and i'm not in a zone I don't receive my emails through the cellular network. Only when I power off the phone and turn it back on, do I re

I'm having problems with my email account. I receive emails when I'm in a wifi zone. But if the wifi is turned off and i'm not in a zone I don't receive my emails through the cellular network. Only when I power off the phone and turn it back on, do I receive the emails through the cellualr network (again with the wifi off)

In your email settings on the phone check to make sure it is set to receive emails on cellular network. It's a feature you can turn off so your phone isn't constantly updating emails on the cell network, but if you are usually in a place with wifi and aren't concerned about going over your data allowance, you can turn it back on.

Depends on your carrier and data plan.
With ATT in the US for example, you can FaceTime via ATT's cellular network if you have a shared data plan only.

What is included with the ipad 32bit?

What is included with the Ipad2 wi-fi 3G?

What do you mean by, what is included? Do you mean what is included in the box? If you do, you get an iPad, a USB cable, a 10W charger, an Apple Logo Sticker and a very small booklet that gives you the most basic set up instructions.

What's Included in the Server Package

I have been using SBS08 for the past few years and we are now ready to upgrade our system to Server 2012. We have more users than would be allowed by the Essentials package.
When we purchased SBS08, it came with Exchange and SQL.
My question is what is included in the server package? Does it come with Exchange and SQL or do these applications have to be purchased separately?
Thanks!

Server comes with Server. You can see what is there by looking at the TechNet library.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb625087.aspx
Applications like Exchange, SQL, SharePoint, etc. are all extras.
Personally (I do not work for Microsoft) when making a move like you are making, I would seriously consider looking into Office 365 or some other hosted Exchange service rather than paying to set one up internally. My logic on this is that it is a
commodity. I have seen very, very, very few Exchange installations that were different enough that the management of it was unique to the company and provided a strategic value to the company. If your Exchange implementation is not of that
flavor, why bother with the internal expense of setting it up and managing it? Initial reaction is often that one can do it for less than a subscription service, but if you look at all the costs of running it and the cost of the time it takes away from
working on applications that do provide strategic value to your company, you might find the cost of a subscription service to be less costly.

What is included in the 1 year free warranty for an iphone4?

What is included in the 1 year free warranty for an iphone4?

Like most any warranty it covers manufacturer defects.
It does not cover anything else.
Apple's Limited Warranty for iPhone excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications. Please review the warranty for further details.
An iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service may be eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service. For example, an iPhone that has failed due to damage or liquid damage is ineligible for warranty service but eligible for OOW service. However, certain damage is ineligible for OOW service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details. Refer to this article to check if the Liquid Contact indicator on your product has been triggered.
If your iPhone is not eligible for warranty service and you are a Verizon customer, you may wish to contact Verizon for other options.

How to check the current networks on receiver with SHAREit?

1. Launch SHAREit and click Receive; 2. The page will change to "Waiting to receive", and click the "Friends cannot find you?" button; 3. The "Current networks" will pop up, as follows: .lan .EjrpN-........etc.

For the most part, sender can find receiver automatically. Under narrow cases, sender may need to join the same network as receiver.
