IPhone :: Registering IP4 On ITunes - Store / Installing Apps W/o Internet
Jun 22, 2010
I guess the only way I can tether my iP4 to my 10v hackintosh without paying o2's 'extra charges' will be by jailbreaking right? Any other way?...If I put my already activated micro-sim into my iP4 at the store, what will I be able to do with it on my train back...or will i need to 'register' via iTunes first before i can mess with it?
If I have to register it via iTunes before i can do anything with it then i guess i can do this on a Mac at the store right (making sure i sign out properly after having finished doing this ofcourse)?I have already downloaded the apps i will be installing via iTunes to my netbook. i'm guessing i simply plug the ip4 into my netbook and install them on the way home...or will i need an internet connection to install already 'downloaded' apps?
I have iOS 4.2.1 and my games/ apps crash, most of the time they never open but this isn't always happening but time to time it does get quite annoyingly. Might it be because the iPhone 3G hasn't enough ram space or shall I hard reset the phone and then start opening apps, btw I download the apps of AppStore and I don't download them of any other source.
On iphone 4 Not able to update any apps or buy iTunes since updating phone to 5.1.1. Tried doing a cold boot of the phone and resetting password but still get "unknown error" message and a prompt to cancel or retry.
Since I updated to 5.1 on my iPhone 3Gs, I keep getting problems with the updated OS. I can't download apps, music or books from the iTunes store, it's very hit and miss. It is pointless having a pin upon wake up of the phone as all you have to do to get past the pin is by swiping the camera button up to by-pass it. The battery life has dramatically dropped from lasting a couple of days with everyday use to around 9 hours. The signal from the network has dropped from 3 bars on 3G to 4 bars on GPRS, and finally apps keep crashing and exit themselves to the home screen.
I have rang my network (O2UK) and they have said that they have had serveral reports of Apple products having these bugs since the release of 5.1, and saying that nothing has changed in terms of te settings and masts near me, but they advised me to check my network settings and if they are different from what O2's website said (they were the same). So why are there so many bugs with 5.1? I can't download any apps at all and my battery is worse?

I have struggled over this for days. I recently lost the internet provider on my old internet account which was my old Apple ID. I successfully changed my Apple ID in ITunes to a new permanent email address. I cannot change the settings on the App store or ICloud. The suggested solutions for this problem have not worked for me because there is no option for changing the old Apple ID. When you tap on it, it does not change. I have tried signing in with the Old Apple ID (the old email account) and it doesn't work either. I have synced my phone (and lost my contacts in the process but that was an entirely different headache!) to no avail.
Some of the solutions stated that I should go to the store and tap on the Apple ID and it would allow me to change...no such luck. Also when I tried Iforgot, it would only let me change my password which is not really any help because the problem is the Apple Id.
"Updating to iOS 5.1.1 will delete all of the apps and media, including iTunes Store purchases, on your iPhone. To preserve your content, apply this update on the computer where you sync apps, music videos, and photos. Updating on this computer will only preserve contacts, calendars, text messages, and other settings. Please do not interrupt the update, which may take an hour or longer to complete. iTunes will verify the software update with Apple." What do I do now? My only options on the pop up are cancel or update.
If you already have an Apple ID, you can easily use it at the iTunes Store or Mac App Store.

So for 2 months I have not been able to update any of my apps due to the error code "cannot connect to itunes store. I can download new apps, buy music, itunes works fine but I cannot update anything. I have tried resetting, logging in and out of id, turning wifi on and off. Pretty much everything that a not so technical person can do.
Iphone 4 says i have updates to install for my apps, when i try to it prompts for my password which i type in, then it waits a few moments before telling me "Cannot connect to itunes store"
So I come home today to see four emails from PayPal from the four payments that have been made using my App Store account, totaling $449.95. I call Apple immediately and after being on hold for nearly 50 minutes with them trying to figure this out, I'm told my App Store account is going to be closed and that they cannot reverse the charges, so I need to file a dispute with my bank (or in my case, PayPal).
I called PayPal and they did not sound very confident in me getting my money back and said Apple should be the one reversing the charges. They guided me through filing a dispute on the charges and said that is the best they can do.
Am I screwed out of my money? Here is a screenshot of what the charges were made for (there is another $49.99 charge that is not showing up here, but appears in my PayPal account history):
I never downloaded or purchased "Zynga Live Poker", nor did I buy any of the credits for the game.
Has anyone noticed that the device software v5 upgrade has a bug? I am unable to activate the alpha keyboard to enter registration codes for my purchased applications. Only the numberical keyboard is working.
I followed the unlocked instruction from AT&T to restore my 3GS iPhone from factory settings. After completing restoring, follow the steps to set up the phone and stuck at activation screen. I inserted AT&T SIM card and connected to iTune but still failed to activate with following error message on iTune: "There is no SIM card installed in the iphone you are attempting to activate. Please disconnect and insert a SIM card in the iPhone." I have retry several times (including disconnect and reinsert the sim) but no luck.
Now that we have Cydia on our iPhone 4's i was wondering what are some of the best apps to download. I havent jailbroken an iphone for a very long time so i dont know too many apps out there.
When I download an app to my iphone 4S it appears as "installed", nonetheless, I the icon does not appear on the phone's screen. As a result I cannot use the application and if I try to install it again it appears as "installed. I tried resetting the phone to no avail.
I was fed up with the limited amount of sounds on the iphone 3gs so wanted to change it and found that you can buy one from Itunes so I did this and bought one now my problem is installing it on the phone as a ring tone. I downloaded it via the itunes on the phone not the computer.
I've got an iPhone 2G, jailbroken and unlocked, running 3.0. I got my iPhone back after a month of letting my gf use it, and it needed 6 app updates through the app store. On the 3rd update, it wouldn't download the updates any more. I restarted the wifi connection (turned off wifi then back on) but it didn't get the download going. I powered off the device and turned it back on. Now it has three "blank" (kind of a fuzzy white) icons attempting to install itself, but only downloads something and stops at the install. The phone subsequently becomes unusable at that time (i.e. really slow). Cydia crashes on me, so that's not an option.
Bought a C3 for my wife yesterday, when we went to go into the OVI store it said it needed updating, update was downloaded and installed and said it was successful and saved to collections but when I try to open it loading begins then it says its closing and closes
I've been using my E51 device for the last 2 years (about ...),without any problems.Since installing Ovi Store software on the device, it hasn't been able to receive business cards.I can send them, the logs show that I've received them, but they're not there !?! Not in the messaging Inbox, at least.Any ideas, please ? It's quite annoying, really.
Bought a HTC Kaiser 8925 Tilt about 3 weeks ago.Put in the sim card from my AT&T Sierra wireless USBconnect Mercury air card unit .was able to connect to internet using it with no problem.When phone arrived it had windows Mobile 6.0 installed so I installed 6.1.Everything works fine after the upgrade except the air card feature.I can connect to wifi when I am in town but when I get out of range and need to use the air card feature of the sim it does not work and I cannot connect to the internet.If I do a hard reset would it revert back to Windows Mobile 6.0?I like the looks of 6.1 better but need the internet access that the air card feature provides.
