Will this work? I can't seem to get a straight answer.

Ok, So I am probably buying my friends Iphone and I have a question.
I currently have a regular phone with a 3G SIM card (no data plan at all, in fact if it makes a difference I am on a Familytalk plan)
Anyway, since it is a 3G sim card, will it work in an Iphone without having to buy any Iphone Data plan as long as I don't use Edge/3G?
The reason I ask is because I really want to stay on Apple's good side and I dont want to... well I'm not going to say the bad word on the Apple Forums, but it rhymes with Shmailbreak.

I have used my iPhone with my wife's SIM card from her Samsung with no data plan.
BUT
At some point AT&T will notice you are using an iphone without a data plan and make you pay for it. There is no way around it. Even if you go around apple, it doesn't change the fact, that if you use AT&T and an iPhone, at some point they will force you to have a dataplan.
There may even be something in the TOS that will let them back charge you as it is very clear that an iPhone requires a data plan on AT&T.

    I've gotten a little further on this. The dynamic select is
    working fine. It's the "a href" code that isn't. I'm wondering if
    someone can look at this line and tell me if it's okay to build the
    query string this way. The storeid comes through fine but I'm still
    not getting the employeeid value to pass. Here's line that's not
    working:
    td><a href="registerStoreCust.php?storeid=<?php echo
    $row_storeRS['storeid']; echo "&employeeid="; echo
    $_GET['employeeLM']; ?>">Register

    Let's start with iTunes.
    Have you updated iTunes to 11.1.5, because the previous version did appear to have an issue about seeing iPods?
    With iTunes 11.1.5 installed, look in Edit/Preferences/Devices, (or use the ALT key, followed by the E key and then the F key) and make sure that the box named Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically does not have a tick in the box.
    Once you have doen those two things, check to see if the iPod is seen by iTunes.

    OS stands for Operating System. (In computer speak, IO means Input/Output.)
    iOS originally stood for iPhone Operating System, but it now refers to the iPod Touch and iPhone. The iPod Classic, which you have listed in your profile as your iPod, does not use iOS.
    I assume that you have been listening to the Podcast in your iTunes on the computer as you cannot transfer it to your iPod. It's what I'd do.

    Unless Verizon has a special provision in this regard that ATT has never had, Apple handles all iPhone repairs and exchanges under Apple's warranty.
    There is a setting when capturing photos - Automatic, On, or Off for the flash when capturing photos.
    If there is no flash when set to On or Automatic in a dark setting and no change after the standard troubleshooting steps which in order are:
    Power your iPhone off and on.
    An iPhone reset.
    Restoring your iPhone with iTunes from the backup.
    Restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup.
    Your iPhone has a hardware problem. You can call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

  • HT4623 I have purchased a Epson Workforce 435, can't AirPrint, will this work with the first gen iPad?

    I have purchased a Epson Workforce 435, can't AirPrint, will this work with the first gen iPad?

    Also i forgot to add after a night of searching how to turn the Epson Workforce 435 printer into Airprint friendly and not iPrint (which are 2 completely different things) i donwloaded a program called (AirPrint Activator) from HandyPrint. The link is below to download the software. Once i installed the application i set my printer to be shared over my Home Network (Wi-Fi Network). Once you have done that, open the AirPrint Activator application you have just downloaded, swtich it ON from OFF mode, and then you should easily see your printer name in my case EPSON Workforce 435 and then just close the application. Then go to your IOS Device like your iphone/ipad/ipod touch select a picture that you want to test print or even an attached PDF from your email, and select Print in the share button. You will then be prompted to select your printer. Your printer you automatically be recongised then just select print. And now you have a complete AirPrint ready printer with a Printer that doesnt even support the function. Im sure you can do this to all Wireless Printers, even if they came out before Apple AirPrint service launch.
    And also if you still need guidance and a video to follow from just click the Youtube link below

  • I have downloaded trial for Windows English version, but can't open the Captivate_8_LS21.7z file. I have 32-bit. Will this work or shoudl I redownload?

    I have downloaded trial for Windows English version 1.45GB.
    It has downloaded but I can't open the Captivate_8_LS21.7z file.
    I have 32-bit. Will this work ?

    Hi There,
    In order to download / install Captivate 8 32 bit, you have to download 2 files ( .7z and .exe ) at same location/ folder.
    Once both files downloaded completely then you have to run .exe file and it will extract .7z file first and then it will initialize the installer. You do not have to open .7z file.
    Let me provide you the download links of Captivate 8 32 bit :-
    Open the link mention below in any Web Browser say Internet Explorer
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=captivate
    Sign in with your Adobe id and Password, then you will be redirected to download Web Page of Captivate 8. 
    Do not click on Download. Kindly let that window open as it is.
    Now Copy and paste the link mention below in the new tab/window of the same Web Browser in which you have opened the above link.
    http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/CPTV/8/win32/Captivate_8_LS21.7z
    Then Save the file.
    Do the same for the link mention below and save this .exe file as well.
    http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/CPTV/8/win32/Captivate_8_LS21.exe
    Make sure both the files (.7z and .exe) save/download at the same location/folder.
    NOTE: Wait for both the files to finish download and then run the .exe file.
    Once you run the .exe, it will start extracting the .7z file and will provide Captivate 8 folder on your desktop which will contain setup.exe. Run this setup.exe to install Captivate 8.
    Regards,
    Ajit

  • Speaker on phone calls will not work, how can I fix this? I have already done system restart and reset to manufature default.

    speaker on phone calls will not work, how can I fix this? I have already done system restart and reset to manufature default. I also have no voice with Safari or any other apps including music!

    If your speaker is broken, then you may need to get a repair done.
    Are you unable to hear anything at all, or is it just one speaker in particular?
    If it is just one speaker, where's it located?

    Steve,
    I appreciate your answer.  While it might work, I'm a bit hesitant to remove the other programs as a possible solution since they are all currently working.
    With Acrobat 9 Pro failing with the OS 10.7 upgrade, I'm hoping that there is a less severe solution.
    Since the trigger appears to be 10.7 and may have something to do with the discontinued support of Rosetta, I could be spending a few hours working on a reinstall without a change.  Yes, it might work.  The "might" is the part that makes me hesitate.
    Is anyone else out there on OS 10.7 and running Acrobat 9 Pro?  Any issues with anyone else?
    Thanks Steve.  I do appreciate your offering a solution.  I may end up trying it if nothing else comes together.

  • HT1947 I can't seem to get my earphones to work on my iPad mini whe using iTunes remote. I can stream to any Airplay capable system perfectly. Just want to be able to listen to headphones iTunes "wirelessly"

    I can't seem to get my headphones to work on my iPad mini when using iTunes remote.
    I can stream to any Airplay capable system perfectlyvia Remote and control iTunes on my iMac as advertised.
    Just want to be able to listen to iTunes on my iPad "wirelessly"

    Yay!
    I discovered this lovely little forum entry that solved my problem!
    (Remember this is for Windows, I'm not sure if the same will work for Mac)
    This is what you do:
    1: Have iTunes up and plug in your iPod.
    2: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons down until the iPod shuts down.
    3: When the screen is blank, release the Sleep/Wake and just hold the Home button down for about 15 seconds.
    4: After then, iTunes will recognize an I iPod in Recovery Mode.
    5: That's when iTunes will ask you to Update/Restore your iPod.
    I'm pretty sure those are the steps.
    (If anything is wrong, can someone fix it, please?)
    But that really does work.
    The writer said that his iPod was "stuck on the apple screen, and not going anywhere after that."
    That was my issue, so hopefully this will work for you!

    I just purchased a Brother MFC-9340CDW all in one printer.  It shows up on a list of compatable airprint devices but I can't seem to get it to work.  Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    It won't work with airplay, here is how I got it to work with OSX 10.9.4 fully patched;
    you will need to use the serial cable to start the process:
    In-brief Version:
    0) Go grab the firmware update tool, the driver, and the scanner software
    1) Turn off the firewall and antivirus (if you use it ??)
    2) Update the firmware using the serial line
    3) Reserve a static IP outside the DHCP range (using the MAC address of the printer) on your WAP server
    4) Configure the printer to use a static IP through the front panel
    5) Configure the printer WIFI with your SSID and net key through the front panel
    6) Install the CUPS driver on your computer through the printer settings by specifying the static IP
    7) Install the Scanner driver then go into the Control Center and add you computer and printer configuration
    I generally use this kind of set up so that the printer comes back at the same place after a power failure in
    the event that it has a crappy driver.
    For those of you who need a little more help:
    0) Turn off anti-virus and firewall software (it did seem to matter)
    1) Go to the Brother Center and download 1) The firmware update tool, 2) the driver, 3) the scanner software
    2) Go to the front panel on the printer: tools -> all settings -> network -> tcp/ip -> WLAN ; find the MAC address and write it down
    3) Plug the printer in using the serial cable, it will auto detect and you will be able to talk to it.
    4) Install the firmware update tool by double clicking on the dmg you downloaded
    5) Update the firmware and the subfirmware (NOTE: this is a bit finicky -- you may have to unplug and replug it in a couple of times before it starts to talk with the device, after it starts the update process it frequently gives up in the middle, DO NOT unplug the device at this point, just select "retry" from the dialog and it will continue -- it will take about 15 mins or so.
    6) Once the firmware is installed, go to your WAP server and look at the DHCP IP range; typically something like 10.0.1.2 to 10.0.1.200
    7) If there is a capability to reserve an IP on your WAP server pick an IP outside the range in 6 (e.g. 10.0.1.201) and use the MAC address (from step 2) for the reservation... its fine if you don't reserve it -- this is an extra precaution -- just make sure you pick an IP outside the DHCP range
    8) Go to the front panel on the printer: tools -> all settings -> network -> tcp/ip -> WLAN ; then set the IP address:
         boot method: static
         IP address: the address you chose in 7)
         mask: 255.255.255.0
         gateway: the IP of your router -- typically 10.0.1.1
    8) Go to the front panel on the printer: tools -> wireless -> setup wizard -> let it find your network, select it, and enter your key.
    9) Reboot the printer and check it connects to your wireless network
    10) Go to the front panel on the printer, tools -> all settings -> print reports -> network configuration ; print the report and check the IP and MAC
    are what you think they should be.
    11) Go to your computer, bring up a terminal (applications->utilities->terminal)
    12) Ping your printer to make sure its up and accessible -- type: "ping 10.0.1.201" (or whatever IP you used in step 7) and check you get a response -- not a timeout -- if it works disconnect the serial line and delete the (serial line) printer from the list of printers  -- you won't need it anymore -- if not you screwed up somewhere along the line
    13) Now the printer is on the wireless network, install the driver by double clicking the dmg. Then go to system preferences->printers & scanners
         click +
         in the add menu click IP
         enter your IP (from step 7)
         make sure the Protocol is IPP
         Name the printer and set its location
         Go to Use field, in the pull down menu select "Select Software"
         Go through the list and find the Brother MFC-9340CDW CUPS driver -- if its not there you screwed up installing it so go do it again.
    14) Go back to the printer page -- select the printer, select Open Print Queue, then select Settings -- check the Driver Version is 4.1.0 -- if
    it says 2 you are using the airplay version which seems to be buggered -- so you need to try again.
    15) Go open a word document and print it -- smile you are nearly there
    16) Install the scanner software by double clicking the dmg
    17) Open the Control Center, under the Model: select Other
         Click +
         Select your printer
         Enter your computer name in the display name and click ok
    18) Go into adobe Acrobat File->Create->PDF from Scanner (or whatever software you are scanning with)
    19) Select "Brother TWAIN" from the scanner list -- if its not there you screwed up the scanner software installation -- go do it again
    20) Put a document in the top of the printer and press scan -- wammo !
    21) Turn back on your firewall (and antivirus if you have it -- why I can't imagine but what the ****)
    22) Go ping the printer and make sure its still reachable (see step 12) -- if not you need to figure out what your antivirus is screwing up because the firewall is no problem
    23) try printing and scanning again...
    24) rejoice... your done.

  • Will this work on my Mac?? (RAM)

    YEARS long question, I know. I can't seem to find the correct answer though. I have a late 2005 G5 Power Mac Dual 2.3ghz. I want to upgrade the RAM. I'm still stuck on the SPD or whatever it is. Whether the 4-4-4 timing is correct or not.
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820141241
    This RAM above matches perfectly with what I have installed now, except for the 4-4-4 timing. When I go to Crucial, Crucial doesn't even recommend PC2-4200, but instead 5300 & 6400. So, I'm confused on what will work and what won't. Someone explain, please! Thanks!

    Hi! I trust OWC so look HERE. The very late 05 machines had PCIe expansion slots and the earlier ones had PCIx slots. The later 05 machines use ddr2 memory. Read the info on OWC site and you'll figure it out. I just bought 16 gigs for my quad late 05 machine. Tom
