Why Did I get An E-mail From Apple, Saying free Apple iPhone 3G?

When I got my iTunes gift card and activated it, I started buying music from the iTunes Store. I get 2 e-mails. One from iTunes and one from Apple. I read the 2 messages but then one of them explains and tells me that I can get a iPhone 3G (Black 8GB) Free of charge? if I just update to 2.1. I have a old generation iPhone. Does this mean that I just got a free iPhone 3G (Black 8GB).
P.S:
The messages says that I need to write my serial number, Does this mean I just got a message from a hacker who wants to hack my iPhone or does this mean Apple is really offering me this?.
Please somebody reply I have no idea why would apple send me this message, and it tells me that the sponsor was from the CEO of Apple (Steve Jobbs).

This is the e-mail :
We would like to thank you for registering with iTunes and MobileMe, we have noticed that you had a 1st Gen iPhone.

Why did i get a different headphone from the one in the pic? It has no volume control button.

I am really dissapointed with my order. I bought an apple headphone with remote and mic online, and i received a headphone that doesnt look and function the same as the one advertised. It has no volume control button with the + and - signs. This is the second pairs i bought the headphone and this one definitely looks different from the pairs i had previously. I hope someone can clarify this thing, and it's really troublesome if i wanted to return the headphone.

Are you sure you ordered the earphones WITH remote and volume control? Look at your bill; does it say something like "with remote and mic"? I think you should contact Apple Store for their assistance. Perhaps they really made a mistake and shipped you some old stock item. I agree, shipping and reshipping takes time and is troublesome. Hope you'll find a solution though.

FAQ: I opted out of marketing email from Adobe. Why did I get an email about Elements membership?

Q: I opted out of marketing email from Adobe. Why did I get an email about Elements membership?
A: The email you received was an operational notice regarding changes to Elements membership. Only users who may be affected by these changes received this email.

Hi Steve,
I can personally ensure you get it if after waiting the 60 days you still haven't recieved it yet.
You would also want to ensure:
- You have the annual (yearly) Creative Cloud plan
- You log into the Creative Cloud website from within 3 of the Adobe Touch Apps from the tablet using your Adobe ID associated with your membership
If all this looks correct and you don't recieve an email after the 60 days, send me a private message and I'll ensure you get it.

HT201471 Why did I get a 2011 model ipad when I just purchased it from apple?

Why did I get a 2011 model ipad when I just purchased it from apple?

If you ordered an "iPad 2" (as shown in your profile), that model was created in 2011. The current model is called "iPad with Retina Display" (or "iPad 4" colloquially).

TS4009 Why did I get an email from apple saying my iCloud storage is being downgraded?

Why did I get an email from apple saying my iCloud storage is being downgraded?

You were (previously) a member at MobileMe and got 20GB's of free iCloud storage in addition to the 5GB's offered by the "free" iCloud service.
At the end of this month the 20GB's will go "poof" (like the rest of MobileMe).

Why did I get charged for the gift card from the student deal with macbook pro?

Why did I get charged for the $100 gift card student deal that came with the macbook pro? I was told that it would be taken credited off my credit card however; that has not happened. Am I missing something? Have other people been charged for this as well?

The same thing happened to me but it made sense.
I ordered a MBPR on Jun 12 for $2879 which qualified for the free student gift card. The gift card was available to ship (delivers June 20 - June 21) but the MBPR wasn't available until a month later (deliverys July 3 - July 10). Instead of holding the gift card until the MBPR was ready, Apple charged me $100 for the card then shipped it to me.
About a month later when the MBPR was ready, Apple charged me $2779 then shipped it. In the end, I was charged the correct amount $2779 + $100 = $2879.
Why did Apple do this? I suspect that some people have cheated Apple by ordering a Mac to get the promotional gift card then canceled their order after the gift card was spent. Apple is trying to protect itself.
BTW, if you return the mac then you're expected to return the gift card. If you've spent any amount of the card then Apple will deduct this from your refund.

Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. Not an iCloud account. It is a Bell Aliant account.

Why can I not send e-mails from my e-mail account? I can receive e-mails. It is not an iCloud account it is a Bell Aliant account. An account I pay for.
This is the second time in three months this has occurred. Bell Aliant suggested I contact Apple directly as the only option is to remove my e-mail account and reconfigure it. This will mean losing all my files. These files are very important as my account is a business account.
Bell Aliant thought perhaps it is an Apple problem and that Apple may better be able to remedy the situation without me losing my e-mail files.

Sorry ?
An Internet email provider losses all your Mail and it's Apple's fault ??
Did they explain how the app managed to delete all of your mail and then not even let you have access ?
If that was the case the app should still be able to access the empty folders.
I know there is often blame and counter blame in these situations but there are limits.

No Mail. I can not get or send mail from my iPhone,iCloud, or mail on the desktop. Password is correct i can get into iCloud but not able to get mail.

I can not get or send mail from my iPhone, iCloud, and desktop mail. All are the same account, password is right and working. When the problem first happened I updated to a new password.
The Mail and the phone are telling me ( "The iCloud IMAP server “p99-imap.mail.me.com” rejected the password for user “k****n******2”}
From the iCloud account i get a message saying mail could not be loaded and the details. Which i have copyed below.
Any thoughts or anyone I can ring ? This was a paid for mobile me account.

Spent at least 40 min talking to apple support, to sort it out. luckly not at my cost. After trying lots of things and speaking to a higher grade support person I was given a temp password which did the trick. I then was able to reset that with my own password.
The impression i got was no one knowns what the problem is and resetting the password at the apple end works. Not sure if you would be able to self fix.

Why did I get this stupid emails about missing payment of my Adobe CC ???

Hi, I have get this email from Adobe:
what we have here payment for your account could not be loaded. So there will be no interruptions in your use of the Creative Cloud , please update your billing information shortly .
account Management
If you have decided not to renew your subscription , no further action is required on your part. You have until the end of the current billing period unlimited access to your Creative Cloud membership. Then your paid membership in a free Creative Cloud membership is converted . If you use this time more than 2 GB Creative Cloud storage , you may not be able to access some of your files . In this case it is recommended to delete some files, so you are below the memory limit of 2 GB , which is included in a free Creative Cloud membership.
If you change your mind , we are always happy to activate your paid subscription again .
Thank you for your confidence.

Why did I get this stupid email, because my banking dates are the same as before and creditcard is everytime paying ??????? So what's going on?

Hi. I checked on the order and it says the order is currently being processed and I should check back tomorrow. I'm mostly just concerned because I got an email saying the order was on hold, and I want to make sure it actually does go through and I'm not just waiting for a delivery that's not going to come. I'm still confused as to why I'd get an email saying I had to call the fraud department only to be told I shouldn't have called the fraud department.

Why did I get 72 dpi solutions in AI CS5 instead of 300 dpi in Photoshop CS5!

Dear all!
I have done my file in Photoshop with 300 dpi. I have finished it and then saved it as EPS because I would like to open it in my AI CS5.
So I go to File>Open the EPS File in AI CS5. I get it with 72 dpi file in AI CS5 when I check the resolution in Effect>Documents Raster Effects Settings. Why did I get 72 dpi file in AI CS5 instead of the original file which is really 300 dpi in Photoshop?
Will it change the quality if I change from 72 dpi to 300 dpi as I wish to in the Documents Raster Effects Settings?
Please help to explain in details if possible.
Thanks a lot and best wishes.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
My best regards,
LUCK

Luck,
To see the use the raster image in its right size along with other objects, scale it (down) to match. To go from 72 to 300 PPI you need a factor of 0.24 (proportionally), you may use multiplication by 0.24 in the Transform panel or Object>Transform>Scale with 24% .
It means I must change resolutions in Document Raster Effects Settings if I have effects raster effects created within Illustrator. Is it right?
If (and only) if you wish to have the effects at the same resolution as (one of) the raster image(s). This will depend of the actual effect, but for many effects, yes (you will have to choose one resolution if the document contains more than one).
Illy always sees raster images at 72 PPI, unless she is told otherwise.

Why did Adobe get rid of 'No Color Management' option in CS5

I use this option (in earlier CS verisons) when printing digital negatives on transparency film on my Epson 3880. There are a few work-arounds, including a printer utility from Adobe (which only works on tIff files, so it's limitied).
But why, oh why did they get rid of this option in the first place. Did someone just decide, gee, I don't think that's a feature we want anymore in our program, so, puff, it's gone? I hate it when program 'updates' make my work harder instead of easier.

Nope...I was told this by engineers familiar with the initiative...

ACPU and for that matter i1Profiler sends print image data (untagged I assume) through ColorSync and the print driver the exact same way as Lightroom and PSCS5 do when Application Manages Color is selected when printing. The only difference is that LR and PS do not allow you to send untagged image data.
ACPU does send the untagged data through Colorsync, but the image data gets converted by Colorsync or ACPU to the printer profile chosen in the print driver as set up in the Print window of ACPU...so, since the document is in the final profile space of the printer, the print driver does nothing (null transform). Then you choose don't manage color in the driver. Exactly how ACPU works with Colorsync to avoid having Colorsync to an unwanted color transform isn't clear (would have to ask the engineer that wrote it), ACPU is clearly doing SOMETHING different than Photoshop and Lightroom when sending the image data to the printer.
You can see what profile gets embedded when printing from ACPU by setting up the driver and saving a PDF and opening in Photoshop. When I printed to PDF from ACPU after setting up the driver to use Epson Glossy paper on an Epson R3000, the embedded profile in the PDF was SPR3000 Premium Glossy. Which if sent to the printer should result in a null transform. This is similar to the CS5 work around to tag an image with a color space and have that same color space set in Photoshop Manages Color and set the Printer Profile color space to be the same thus bypassing the Colorsync "generic RGB" transform. However, that work around no longer works with Photoshop CS6 (we were warned that this might happen BTW).
I haven't tried it yet, but it's possible that you could still work around this in CS6 if you take an untagged target, assign the printer profile, then use Photoshop Manages Color with the profile being the same printer profile and then in the driver set do not color manage...actually, scratch that–I just tried that and CS6 pops a warning that "No Color Managment is not supported" when trying to print without the proper color management and to get ACPU with a link to download it. I guess Photoshop got pretty serious about disallowing this sort of printing. Heck, you can't even print to PDF.
On the other hand, the simplest solution for me is to simply print out the target using i1Profiler...

Why did I receive an e-mail saying I have exceeded my storage when I am using less than 1 GB

why did I receive an e-mail saying I have exceeded my storage when I am using less than 1 GB?

Thanks: our creatives said they would research "with Apple" and let us know next week when we are there for training, so you are correct we probally don't need the Genius Bar, but since we're at the Apple store for training it's good to keep in touch with them as they always have some good tips or advice.
Plus if they get to know you you seem to get better service

HT201272 Why did I get charged for dowloading music to my iPhone that I already purchased?

Why did I get charged for dowloading music to my iPhone that I already purchased on my PC?

Thanks for the response!
Since I only have one AppleID and since I'm sitting at the computer showing the previously purchased songs, I'm guessing your third response is the accurate. I logged onto iTunes Store and "reported a problem" with the two songs and am awating their reply.
I'm guessing that it's something I did (or didn't do) when I downloaded the songs from iTunes Store to my iPhone. I forgot to synch these two songs from my PC to my iPhone before travelling. However, I noticed that the two songs were listed on my iPhone iTunes application in a playlist called "recently purchased." I clicked on the two songs and they were downloaded to my iPhone (which I would expect); I then received an email receipt for the charges for the songs (which I didn't expect.)
