Why is it that Apple cannot get their bluetooth technology right? The3GS does not even find the handsfree kit, computer etc? While a cheap $59 phone can do that from Nokia? why don't Apple get their act together?

Why is it that Apple can't get their bluetooth technology right? I cannot connect to my Honda Civic VTI-L 2011 model using the bluetooth? While I can do that using my cheap Nokia phone ($59.00)? I shelled out $380.00 and this is what I get...
It will not even connect to my HP Elitebook 8540P??? Before anyone starts, this is what i have already done:
Installed the latest OS 5.1
Switched on the bluetooth on both device
And they are next to one another
So don't post here saying things that I have already done. Used the Bluetooth technology frequently so those carp from Apple about making sure devices are discoverable blah blah blah...don't even go there.
Will not buy another Iphone and will tell everyone that I know of that it is a piece of overhyped ****.

"What Apple did say that it has Bluetooth Technology,"
It does have bluetooth technology. It will connect to may types of devices via bluetooth.
using any other phones, the Bluetooth Technology means that you can connect to other devices with Bluetooth Technology."
Iphone connect to other devices as well. I connect via bluetooth all the time to my car. Like any other phone, it does not connect to ALL devices for ALL purposes.
You seem to have very little understanding of bluetooth technology. Perhpas you should read up on bluetooth before you begin a rant based on your ignorance of the subject.

Hello everyone,
I just updated my 3GS from iOS 5.0.0 to 5.0.1
Since the update, Itunes says that no SIM card is detected, and the iPhone says that it cannot be activated. It also obviously does not detect any network.
I tried restarting the phone several times, removing the SIM card several times, but it did not change anything, the SIM is still not detected.

HT5706 I have not used my apple tv in a few years, and just got it out of the bag. I connected it up, and it cannot set date, time. it also does not interact with the remote. Could it be as simple as a new batter is needed for remote?

I have not used my Apple TV in a few years, and just got it out of the bag to use on a new TV. I connected it up to power and with an HDMI cable toTV. It attempts to set date and time and cannot. I cannot get the remote to interact with the box also. Could it be something as simple as needing a new battery?

Ensure that Apple TV is within range of your Wi-Fi router or base station.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable/DSL modem are connected to power and turned on.
Make sure other devices (computers, iPhone, iPad, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Check your Wi-Fi network settings on Apple TV:
Select Settings > General > Network > Wi-Fi and press the center button on the remote to display nearby networks.
Choose your Wi-Fi network from the list.
If your Wi-Fi network uses a password, make sure you are entering it correctly.
Restart your Apple TV by selecting Settings > General > Restart.
Try restarting your Wi-Fi router or modem by turning it off and then on again.
If possible, connect an Ethernet cable and verify your Internet connection. If you can connect to the Internet using an Ethernet connection, verify that your Apple TV is using the latest software by selecting Settings > General > Software Update. If your Apple TV can be updated, install the update and then try the steps again.

HT5624 Anytime I use my apple Id I am asked to review it and this always what I go through which does not even solve the problem. What do I do?

I have an empty line on my toolbars that I'd like to get rid of. Right-clicking does not pull up any options, so how would I do this?

I have a four-line toolbar. The fourth line is completely empty, so I'd like to remove it. I tried right-clicking to pull up a menu, but nothing appears. How can I remove this empty line? The empty line appeared just now after I disabled a Bing toolbar. I probably will eventually uninstall the Bing toolbar, but I hope the empty line is not there until I do that. Thanks much.

Thanks for the quick response. I noticed that my Yahoo toolbar was not being displayed. It just so happens that at one point, I exited Firefox and then went back in later. When I went back in, the 'empty' line was populated by the Yahoo toolbar.

Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

HT201263 I cannot update my iPad as my version does not have under the general setting a soft wear update section. What do I do?

Cannot update my version as no update button in the general settings set ion.

You can only update to the latest version of iOS by OTA (Over The Air) if you have iOS 5.x or later.
Since you have iOS 4.3.3 or 4.3.5 you will have to connect your device with your 30 pin dock connector to usb cable to one of your usb ports and then launch iTunes if you have installed on your computer you normally sync with.
Then, you will be prompted for an iOS update.
Or, once your device appear on the left hand side under devices select it and then a window will appear on the right hand side with several panes (tabs).
Select the Summary pane (tab) and then under the 'Version' section select 'Check for Updates'
Hope this helps

If you dont have none option then you must own itunes some money. So you have to enter the payment like a itunes giftcard. you can contact itunes by email by going to expresslane.apple.com

I have an Apple iphone 4s and for the last 4 weeks I cannot download or update any apps. I have an iPad and a Mac book pro and the apps download on these devices fine. My phone tells me that I have 12 updates but when I press update all or update any individually nothing happens at all. It also does not ask me for my password any more but my iPad and mac book do.
I have signed in and out of the app store and the password is correct. I have tried both kinds of reboot but that did nothing. I have tried to update the apps by connecting phone to Mac book pro...it shows the apps being download on the Mac book and says it will sync them to my phone but it does not. Everything else on my phone works fine.
Any ideas ...Please!

Thank you, this has resolved both the iphone and ipad problem immediately. I am concerned that I may have a problem with apps that I bought under my old AppleID as they will not be recognised. Any suggestions for this please?

When setting up my apple I'd I get a verification email but there does not seen to be a link to click on there is a link that says "verify now" but it's not a link the only other thing on the page is a link to apple thats starts the process all over again.does anyone have a solution for this problem?

The idea to jumpstart by change was not the smartest one, but gives you an opportunity to use that "temporary" account as permanent. You do not have a choice cause obviously despite you thinking that old account is no more -it does exist on Apple servers. And if you are unwilling to share your [email protected] with friend, just create one extra [email protected] for your friend. One suggestion - do not use gmail.

Need a driver for a HP Colour laser Jet 1600. This does not appear on the apple list. can anyone suggest where i get a driver from?

This driver does not appear in the apple search list.
Any ideas on where i can locate a driver.

Try the HP site. Apple's drivers come from the printer vendors.
Don't be all that surprised if there isn't an updated driver available; HP don't support superceded models with updates for every OS update.

I need to reset my security questions, I don't have a rescue email and I live in Lebanon (Does not appear in the list of countries for apple calls)

Hi,
I forgot my security questions and I don't have a rescue email setup.
I serached the internet and the only solution I found for that is to call apple. The proble is there is no phone to call, they have to call you and there is a list of countries.
I live in Lebanon and it does not appear in the list of countries listed for apple customer support call.
How can I reset the security questions.
thank you

          bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
          'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
          ID security questions' and click 'Continue'.
     2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
     3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:
