When will iPhone support PPPoE internet connections?

When will iPhone support PPPoE internet connections? Numerous Internet providers still use PPPoE internet over DHCP data. However, iphone does not support PPPoE.

PPPoE is irrelevant to the iPhone; it is a protocol between the ISP and the first point of presence on premises, which today is almost always a wired or wireless router. PPPoE would only be meaningful if there was a way to connect the phone directly to the incoming Internet connection. As there is no way to do this physically it would be pointless.

When will iPhone 5 be compatible with Brazilian internet 4G

I live in Brazil and would like to have an iPhone 5. But (what I thought unthinkable) I got to know it's not compatible with Brazilian internet 4G. When will iPhone 5 be compatible with our 4G? Is Apple doing anything about this? I see no point in buying an expensive an state of the art phone and not to be able to use it with 4G. And about other devices like iPad and iPod?
Thank you.

We don't know. However, what Apple knows and is willing to share regarding 4G/LTE compatibility is found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937 (updated recently).

When will Apple support MAP on the iPhone iO6?

When will Apple support MAP on the iPhone iO6?

Guess I could have been clearer. What I am referring to is MAP-compatable (Message Access Profile) phone pairing for text messaging in newer vehicles. Apple does not support this service, would make driving safer if they did.

Windows Action Center says 'Connect to the internet or try again later' when I have a working internet connection

I'm running on Windows 8.1 pro version and I've had this problem since I upgrated to Windows 8. I also have problems with Windows Update getting stuck on preparing to install or downloading updates but it shows the size of updates as 0 kb and progress stays
at 0%. I usually have to reboot and then run Windows Update again to get it to work. Sometimes it also asks if I want to resume download since it thinks I'm on a metered connection.
I use a 3G usb dongle for my internet connection, but I also have manually setup a local network on my NIC (which does not have a gateway set) to connect to my backup server. If I remove the 3G usb dongle and set a gateway for the NIC (I currently also have
dsl landline which is used by other computers on the network) Windows update works without problems. I have the Windows settings enabled to download over metered connections so that should not be the problem.
Is there maybe a problem how Windows handles the internet connection using a USB dongle when you have a local network setup, or is there something else I might have missed? I did not have this problem when I was still running on Windows 7.

only windows update, action center that seem to have these problems.
Reminiscent of the same symptoms as a dial-up user. Then, one way that I could use Help & Support (in XP) was by setting Never dial in the connection and making sure that Support via H&S was the
first request I tried after connecting. Otherwise it seemed that those applications thought they could expect LAN speed performance which was obviously not the case. I have been surprised how relatively
few similar incidents there have been with PPPoE because it could have the same problem, just on a faster circuit and so lower probability of it happening.
You could try tracing with a TCP packet tracer such as NetMon to see what the timings are in each case. Unfortunately I think that the ability to tune away timeout symptoms is still very lacking in W8. Do you know what all your dongle has to
do to set up a circuit? One difference between W7 and W8 is greater use of IPv6. So you could try disabling that support to see if your symptoms changed.
Good luck

Checked the properties for the usb dongle and it doesn't have ipv6 on the protocol list at all. Can't really say looking at netmon if there is problem with timings, atleast with my level of expertise. Might try to install Windows on VM on this to see if it
has same kind of behavior since it will use the same internet connection.

Just one month before i bought iphone 5... but the iphone has the internet connectivity problem... while a iphone 4s is cathcing 3G tower, whereas iphone 5 is catching 2G network only.... I've tried so many things to get recovered, but alas

Just one month before i bought iphone 5... but the iphone has the internet connectivity problem... while a iphone 4s is cathcing 3G tower, whereas iphone 5 is catching 2G network only.... I've tried so many things to get recovered, but alas, nothing is workable- such as- restaring the iphone, reseting the networks etc... Please help me out from this problem..

to be clear, my phone works fine when not in motion in a vehicle. If I pull over and come to a complete stop, remaining in the car, my phone works.
And while the phone is not working when I'm in motion, an internet search or a text message will go through, but I can not use Siri or any voice assistance when doing the text message or internet search. The microphone is greyed out.
So this is a unique issue, which appears to be the iPhone and not Verizon.

When will Apple Support Ultraviolet Digital Copies?

This is something of a cross post for iPad & iPhone, but I won't be cross posting it as they can be a bit annoying.
I'm a huge fan of digital copies, wasn't once, but now am. Having digital copies is something that does factor into me deciding when to buy a film on Blu-Ray and when to wait.
The new thing that is being pushed now is Ultraviolet, a quasi-cloud type service, for digital copies. However it can only be used by a select few devices; Mac (and even Windows) don't support it. Personally I prefer the standard digital copy, I maintain my library, back it up when I make new purchases and save my recipets in case anything happens. And of course a big reason I prefer it is because I won't be hopping between two services for them.
My question is when will Apple support Ultraviolet Digital Copies? Or will there be an alternative where the Blu-Ray will include a code for a traditional digital copy that if used will void the UV copy and vice-versa?
I would personally prefer an alternative as I'd hate managing two accounts to handle my digital copies.

After I activate the iphone with an internet connection..

After I activate the iphone with an internet connection on my home computer, do I ever have to have internet on my home computer for my iphone to work? Like do I need the itunes store for my iphone if I'm never going to buy anything from it or can I just use the internet connection from my iphone? Because after I activate my iphone I was thinking about canceling my internet on my home computer because I'll have it on my iphone..would that work? Thanks!

As posted above me here. One of the Requirements for an iPhone is a PC and an Internet Connection.
1. iPhone needs Internet to communicate with the servers when you do any iPhone Updates
2. iPhone needs Internet to communicate with the servers when doing a restore
3. iPhone uses internet when you connect to iTunes to confirm you are an AT&T User so you can see your number in the Summary screen
Also if you ever want to put music, tv shows, podcasts etc. On iPhone most of this comes from the iTunes Store so that requires the Internet to download the content.
Also if you want to take advantage of WiFi in your home then you need active internet if you got a Wireless Router
If you do not use Internet on a PC allot, Check into a cheap DSL package and that should suite your needs for using the internet only when you need it.

Is there a way that I can control iTunes with the iPhone without any internet connections?

First let me say that I am ready to throw this POS in the lake. Is there a way that I can control iTunes with my iPhone without any internet connections? On my houseboat I have a wifi router and want to connect my phone to my computer to control my music which plays from my computer through my stereo. I can easily do it with my laptop without having to jump through any internet APPLE BS , but I dont want to have my laptop out on the deck. I just want to use the phone as a remote control.
Remote wont do it because it keeps saying Im not connected to the internet, even though is is connected to my computer. Same problem with JumiAmp.

It should have an option to manage iTunes library without network connection, like Bluetooth or connect directly to the computer without a router or wi-fi, i live outsite of the city and i dont have the ability to control my iTunes librry from the iphone

when will lightroom support d750 raw files?

No one who knows can say and no one who says knows. I’d GUESS it’ll be before the end of November, around the time Canon releases the 7D Mark II which has already been announced by has a ship date sometime in November according to B&H.
While you’re waiting, you can download the DNG Converter 8.7 RC from Adobe Labs, and convert your NEFs to DNGs and import those DNGs into LR. The DNGC is in the CS6 branch of the ACR 8.7 download, here:
