Why do I depend on a carrier for 10.2.1 update if I bought the phone from an electronics shop, unlocked
I am mad on Blackberry for this, because I don't undestand why !
I bought the my phone, a Z10 from an electronics shop, so it is unlocked and not dependable on any carrier, and I paid premium.
The first time I turned on the phone, BB Link did update the OS, though some minor stuff.
Now I see carriers around the world are pushing the 10.2.1 update to their phones but what about me ? I do have a sim card of a carrier (Vodafone) wich did not release the update yet, but WHY DO I need to wait for them to push the update ? Why can't I just update the phone trough Blackberry Link ?
Is there a good reason why the update can only be made if the carrier the phone runs on make it available ?
I find this very stupid !
BlackBerry has never pushed updates direct to the user, always from the carrier.
So, no, there is no public documentation on that.

My iphone plus is bending, what does Apple offer regarding this issue?
I am trying to get to contact with Apple Customer Care, but not clear to me how to do it beside this channel of communication. I bought the phone from kosovar carrier which is under Slovenian ownership. This means that the original warranty comes from Slovenia, bit complicated but still I would like to get an urgent answer how to proceed with this issue, thanksMaybe i should have only asked if anyone is aware on apple's policy
regarding bending. I took the point that this seems not a proper forum to
pose Q's to apple thanks to both

Why has Apple decided that online orders for Macbook Air display and speak VO when first opened from the box? I"m guessing 1%or 2 % of your customers know what it is or want it.
You are not talking to Apple, we are just users like you. Only Apple knows that answer.

My contract is finishing, and now the operator what's to charge me 30US for unlocking the phone from the carrier. The say that they need to send a message to Apple and they charge them for the device to be unlocked?. Can this be true that that Apple want money for that? Or it is their lie and they don't really want to boather....
No. Apple does not charge. It is entirely up to he carrier to set conditions and fees for unlocking.

I want to develop a software with AirPaly service for business things. How can I get the permission from Apple?
This one is used in Windows laptop, and I want it support AirPlay service, but Apple doesn't publish the AirPlay protocol.
Many thanks.Create a developer account, then access he developers forums and see if you can find the information that way
The other option would be to simply contact Apple directly. -
My iPhoto Library (version 8.1.2) is 280GB (greater than 50% of my 500GB total storage memory on my iMac. It was too large for me to drag it to a new hard drive so the Apple geniuses did it for me. However they did not delete the Library from my iMac (that's my responsibility). I dragged it to Trash and when it started to move I clicked over to the new hard drive to confirm it had indeed been copied. I became nervous when I didn't see among the few files on this otherwise empty new hard drive anything that resembled a 280GB Library so I cancelled the migration to trash.
How can I be sure that my iphoto has been copied and that all my "metadata" survived in tact?the new backup drive
I thought the new drive would be your data drive to host the iPhoto library. Do you also use it for TimeMachine backups?
I am unable to search either in email as well as Finder. I AM able to search within iPhoto though, thankfully
Spotlight may still be busy rebuildig its index.
You could try to rebuild the Spotlight Index, if you do see no progress:

I hope, other frequent posters will drop in. I have not used iPhoto 8.x in long time. -

There is no such option.

I am having difficulty charging my iphone with the cable. Its been 1 yr since I bought the phone. Does the cable becomes useleless after a year. Whats the life span for the cable? It automatically gets disconnected and then get connected again.
That is shorter than normal. Any signs of wear? And you're sure it's the cable, not one of the pins in the iPhone's charging port?
