IF I buy a uk iPhone will I be able to put an american sim into it?

I'm due a new phone and want an iphone but in 15months or so I will be going to USA for one year as past of my degree and was wondeing if i bought a uk iphone off the apple website will i be able to put an american sim into it.

Yes, IF you purchase an unlocked phone or your UK carrier will unlock it for you and you get a sim from a compatible US carrier (probably AT&T).
However, the iPhone does not have a worldwide warranty or service. So if something goes wrong with it, you would have to send it back to the UK for service. That isn't an issue unless it breaks, I have had each version since the first and have yet to get one repaired, but it is something to keep in mind.

If i go and buy an ipad from the store will they be able to put a screen protector on for me?

Apple stores don't sell screen protectors.

I need to upgrade my first generation Macbook Air 1,1 to Lion OS x10. I need to install other software that requires 10.7 also a java update that requires 10.7. I am currently on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and my macbook Air 1.1 will not go up to Mountain Lion. The Lion software update 10.7 is no longer available from the store or downloads.
Where do I get this?
It was only released a couple of months ago.
I really feel disinfranchised already by not being able to upgrade and keep up with other software needs but to not allow me to update to my full capacity is really ridiculous.

I have a first generation MacBook Air that has been refurbished via the Apple store. I installed Snow Leopard about a year ago and now, my computer wont update! It will download the updates restart my computer, but then I get an error message!

I have a first generation MacBook Air that has been refurbished via the Apple store. I installed Snow Leopard about a year ago and now, my computer wont update! It will download the updates restart my computer, but then I get an error message and the computer wont restart!

What is a error message and what do you see when it appears?
Haven't much problem with Airs around here, since they have a SSD they tend to be more reliable.
Perhaps it was a bad update, have you ran through this list of possible fixes?
Do as many as possible, starting with #1. Until the problem is resolved.
Use the boot 10.6 USB instead of the disk of course.

If I purchase a non-apple monitor and connect to my Macbook Pro, will I be able to put it to sleep?

I'm looking to buy a monitor or two for my laptop (Retina Macbook Pro 2013 model (not the latest one)). There are a few things that I would like to understand.
- If I'm going to get the Apple Cinema Display, I know I will be using thunderbolt to connect my laptop to it. If I get a non-Apple monitor though, what will I be using? HDMI? also thunderbolt? is thunderbolt exclusive to Apple or can non-Apple monitors use thunderbolt as well.
- As far as sizing and resolution, I know that I have to pay attention to the resolution of the monitor I'm getting to make sure I'm getting the quality I'm looking for as opposed to just looking at the size of it. Ideally, I would want my monitor to look like my Retina Macbook, whats the resolution I should be looking for? Is Retina too much for a monitor? if so, whats a good resolution for a monitor that my Macbook can support fully, what size will work without reducing the quality? does dual screens (even if the second screen was the laptop screen) reduce the quality of one of the monitors?
- I don’t know if this an exclusive thing to when using an Apple monitor but, would I be able to put my laptop to sleep (actually close the lid) while it mirrors to the monitor? Is this only possible when using thunderbolt and therefore it can only happen with Apple Cinema Display? or can it happen with other cables?
- Finally what are your recommendations for monitors that are good. I'm debating between one 27/30 inch monitor and two 21/23 inch display. LCD? LED?

This is more about your modem then anything. Sometimes you'll need to unplug and plug back in your modem. Consider it a glitch from the ISP or just the modem in general.
when I need to turn something off then on I try the modem first. This when I'm not doing any ware and tare to the device.

The SSD on my MacBook Air failed and I lost all of my files and information. Will Apple be able to put the music and photos from my iPad onto my computer since the SSD failure was on them?

Because the failure of the SSD was not in my hands, will Apple help me avoid the inconvenience of restarting on a new computer by using my iPad to get music and pictures back on my computer? It's still under warranty and I feel that Apple should do this for me since I paid $1,500 for a computer that is supposed to be reliable.

Drop the sass, dude.
What I'm asking is will they be able to rip the files off my iPad and put them on my computer instead of leaving me in an unfortunate situation which wouldn't have occurred in the first place. I understand electronics fail all the time, but will they help me get back on track by taking my iPad's files and ripping them onto my Mac?

I need to upgrade Snow Leopard to get icloud before my mobileme expires at the end of June. If I buy Lion, will I be able to upgrade to Mountain Lion free when it comes out? When is MLion going to be released in UK?

I am running Snow Leopard and have a Mobile Me account. My Mobile Me account expires at the end of June. I have been told that I will need to buy the Lion upgrade to run icloud on my imac, but I am aware that Lion is due to be replaced by Mountain Lion this summer. I don't want to have to buy two up grades! Will Mountain Lion be released before my mobile me account expires? If not and I buy the Lion upgrade, will I be able to upgrade it to Mountain Lion, free, in view of the fact that I will only have had Lion for a very short time and could not avoid this purchase??????

HI...
We have no way of knowing exactly when Mountain Lion will be released. Most likely, if you upgrade to Lion now you'll be able to upgrade to Mountain Lion, but the actual minimum requirements are unknown at this time.
Lion is only $29.99 plus any applicable taxes and fees and available from the App Store, or you can purchase the thumb drive > OS X Lion USB Thumb Drive - Apple Store
Make sure your Mac meets Lion's requirements.
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Apple - OS X Lion - Technical specifications

Will I be able to install OS X Lion if I only purchased OS X Mountail Lion?

I just received an old mac from someone, when I got it I wiped the hard drive to erase all of the previous user's data. I then went into disk utility to try and re install OS X, but realized I needed a purchased copy of OS X Lion, I accidentally bought a copy of Mountain Lion. So my question is, will I be able to install Lion, if I bought Mountain Lion? Also if I can't, would I be able to get a refund on Mountain Lion?

How did you accidentally purchase ML? It's no longer available. And why do you need Lion?

If I update from OS X 4.1 to OS X 6.8 will I be able to run software I was using on my defunct MacBook Pro running OS X 8?

If I update from OS X 4.1 to OS X 6.8 will I be able to run various software I was using on my defunct MacBook Pro running OS X 8?

It depends on whether or not the program supports 10.6.8. Some commercial software may need to be reinstalled from the original media/downloads.

Cannot put OS X Lion 10.7 on my MacBook

Recently, I had noticed my hard drive(Macintosh HD) was very full, so I decided to wipe it clean. I followed many different tutorials over the internet which all said the same thing. When erasing my hard drive, many videos showed that putting OS X Lion 10.7 would be easy and not require an Apple ID, however when I attempted it, my MacBook has me sign into my apple account, then tells me that I must Lion. When browsing the Apple website, I have found no way to buy OS X Lion. Is there a way to get this resolved?

You can purchase Lion if you follow this link (you'll get a redeem code to use in the App Store):

Will I be able to put all my programs on my new MacBookPro?

I recently purchased a MacBookPro 13" retina, 8GB ram, 128GB flash storage 2014.
My old MacBook (2008) had 200GB of storage capacity but obviously much slower in speed, they stopped making them rather quickly. It died today, but I had backups of my hard drive including my ccAdobe products and a 3-D modeling program. I worried that my new computer won't be able to hold all my stuff anymore! What do I do without spending another bucket of money?
Anyone willing to offer a handy solution or information?
Thank you!

You might first want to make sure your older apps are still compatible with your new OS:
