What is jailbreak and does apple support it?

I have seen jailbreak and did not think it was something Apple would approve of so I did not pay much attention to it but then I see it on the Facebook Apple iphone 5 page and it looks like it is recommended.  Is it recommended?  What is it?  What kind of changes will it make to my phone if I decide to load it?

What people want to do with their iDevices and jailbreaking is 100% their decision and they should not be criticized for it; however the apple forums is not the place where you'll get help. Simply google your questions and there are countless websites that will help you.

  • What brand of RAMs does Apple support or approve?

    I understand that by default Apple supplies Hynix or Samsung RAMs with the new iMAC Intel Duo Cores (and older iMACs).
    My question is does anyone know if Apple supports or approves of the following brands:
    1. Crucial
    2. Corsair
    3. OWC
    4. ATP
    5. Jetram
    iMac Intel 17" Mac OS X (10.4.6) 1.83GHz

    Yeah, I am thinking of upgrading my iMAC 17" Intel. I just bought it online and am already thinking of adding another 1GB. Am afraid that the additional 1GB may have issues with the original.
    I have a PowerBook 15" G4. Upgraded the memory with a Samsung 1GB that I bought from a local authorized dealer. Though every thing seems to work I can't install Intego VirusBarrier 10.4 or 10.5. Or rather I can install it but can't run it! I suspect it could be the memory.
    I have surfed around and it seems the general consensus is that Crucial Memory is pretty reliable and are manufactured by Micron (an Apple authorized supplier?).
    Thanks for the feedbacks!

    Hi,
    You will notice that this Article is dated 20th November 2008
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1643
    Despite it pointing out Netgear Routers only, you will see from this Thread that the Issue was being discussed here much earlier than that
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1020028&#1020028 Dated 24th Aug 2005
    An Aside
    I have been running my website since 2004 and iChat 2
    This section originally dated 2005 as well also has the info
    http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/page4.html#_mactodo (Item 4)
    It is not so much about what Apple do right away or answer in the Discussions it is about what they do to get the info to a wide an audience as possible.
    The upshot is that they do Monitor the Discussion in various forms.
    Some info finds it's way in to Articles like the first link.
    Other things get tested for future releases of the OS that Developers and others can try out.
    The issue with that is that whoever is doing the testing concentrates on the bits they want to work and know how it works before any changes.
    There are of course other examples dotted about.

  • HT5312 I didn't make a rescue e-mail and now i forgot the answers of my security questions!!' And the apple support contact wont open???

    I didn't make a rescue e-mail and now i forgot the answers of my security questions!!' And the apple support contact wont open???

    I'm not sure what you mean by the 'apple support contact wont open' (?). If you mean the 'contact iTunes Store support' link on the page that you posted from I've just tried it and it seems to wok ok for me, though I haven't gone as far as to actually contact them.
    You can contact either iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps on the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use, or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

    Does apple support video tron network? What are the networks that we support that is not in the united states like AWF network.

    Not sure where you are located, but what ever apps you see on the main menu. Apart from that you can use airplay (if the developer has enabled) or mirroring via a compatible IOS device/computer.

    User,
    I assume that this is for read-only activity. If so, don't create an EO from the database view; create a read-only view object instead. The only reason you'd want to use an Entity Object is if you were going to insert/update through the EO; unless you have an instead-of trigger, this database view is non-insertable/non-updatable.
    Short answer: I think what you want to do is a read-only View Object (not EO) - put "select x, y, z (your columns) from view_name" as the SQL.

  • My wife is very color deficient and has a hard time with the font colors in call log. Any way to change and does Apple have plans to correct?

    My wife is color deficient and has a hard time with the font colors in the phone log and messaging. Is there any way to change color or background and does Apple have plans to correct this?

    There are some minor settings in Accessibility that you can look at, however it really isn't much for color changing. As far as what Apple might have in mind, we are not Apple here, we are users like you. It is against the terms of service to speculate what Apple might have in mind. If you want to provide feedback to Apple, that is done here: www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link.

    I found some little black dots n my iPhone 5 screen. I've only had it for 2 weeks. What are they and will apple replace my iPhone for a new one or fix it?

    They should have one in Stock, but you never know. Call your Apple Store and tell them you have an iPhone 5 color and GB, and that you most likely will need a replacement, do they have any in Stock. If yes, go in, if not ask for advice on how to handle your problem.

    Does apple support blackberry?

    Admittedly, RIM, the makers of Blackberries needs all the support it can get at the moment. However, I haven't heard that Apple is contributing. Though, I'm sure Apple could afford to buy the company if it wanted to.

    The ICCID is the serial number of the SIM card in the phone. For CDMA phones that do not have a SIM (like some Sprint phones) is serves the same purpose in the phone itself.
