PLEASE HELP. iphone 3G iOS 4
OK, so a few days ago I finally got around to upping to iOS 4.02. The next day, I started getting an abhorrent number of dropped calls, fail to connects, no internet service, the works. Mostly while driving, making this more annoying (the little bzzzzzzzz of a dropped call in my earpiece, not so fun.I am, in fact, in possession of a clue (as well as a degree in Information systems), so I start troubleshooting on my own. Jumping into an out of Airplane mode (force to look for network) results in a temporary fix - as in, about 3 seconds of connectivity. Resetting ALL network settings seems to result in about the same. After three or four cycles of this, the phone drops service again, but displays a message saying that it was unable to make or recieve calls, and that I needed to preform a restore.Which I did. And it worked. For thirty seconds, and then I got the same message.So I restored. Again. Reset network settings again, just to be safe.It just dropped a call on me to my mother. Im going to have a lot of fun hearing about how I hung up on her, except that I have... you guessed it, No Service. No restore message though.Im using a silicone case, the phone is sitting on my desk now, wasnt touching it, let alone the antenna when any of this happened, using my headset actually, my wifes got 5 bars of tower even using the death grip, and so does my old 3G (work pays for it, so I have 3 AT&T lines) and Im less than a mile away from a tower, and we usually get really good service here. I dont think its an AT&T problem b/c my other lines are fine.Im out of suggestions. Anyone else seeing anything like this? iPhone 4 iOS 4 ?
I must be the only idiot at my two regular hotspot cafes that cant connect to their Wifi. At first I thought that perhaps their systems were down, and I would ask them (reluctantly) to reboot their routers. Thereupon, their owners would use their Non iphone smartphones and indicate to me that their Wifi on their phones was working. Nothing else has changed on their systems ie passwords and type of router. My Wifi icon shows connected , as well as Network settings shows checkmark. Neither of the two hotspots are the kind that bring up a signup web page. I dont really want to do a Network reset, because basically , that was done when I set up the IP4 the first time, even though I did restore from a backup,but has to put in new network settings.When I go to the Apple store, of course, I am able to get their Wifi connection, so they probably wouldnt bother doing a hardware test upon seeing that I have a connection there. My wifi connection WPA at my House is fine. If I set up a Genius appointment, what kind of a hardware check would they do?After all these forums I have read, I sort of believe that the Wifi chip has to undergo some future firmware update to address some incompatibilities with certain routers/setups. iMac 2.4ghz Intel Based 24 inch Mac OS X (10.6.4) iPhone 3G S 4.0
We have about 10 3G and 3GS iphones. They all have bluetooth trouble with our Toyota Prado models and Lexus RX450H models. When we use the Parrot bluetooth systems in the cars there is no problem. Toyota/Lexus say its the phones. Its the same problem for all - the person with the iphone can hear perfectly but the person on the other end hears a) faintly and b) the sound fades in and out.We have upgraded to OS4 hoping this would improve matters - it didnt.Any solutions apart from fitting Parrot systems to all the cars (which is ridiculous).Jim K 2ghz intel imac Mac OS X (10.5.5)
Aaaaargghhhh...I bought a brand new O2-locked iPhone from eBay in March 2009. Everything was great - used it with a prepay O2 SIM until December, then switched to O2 Simplicity for iPhone. All fine, no problems. In March, O2 offered me the option to unlock, which I did.I went on holiday on June 23rd, to Egypt. To avoid the roaming charges I bought a prepay Vodafone Egypt SIM. The iPhone asked me to connect to iTunes. Not having my iMac with me, I connected via my little Windoze netbook. All was well and I could make/receive calls & texts.Got back to the UK and switched the phone on, still with the Vodafone SIM in it. Connected to Vodafone UK and sent a couple of texts. OK. Tried to make a call...to any number...it says Connection to this number is restricted on this phone. Please contact your customer care agentFine, I thought - must have run out of credit. So I put my O2 SIM back in...now heres where things get interesting. No request to be reconnected to iTunes. A bit odd but fine as O2-UK has appeared...but hang on, there is no signal at all just _ _ _ _ _.O2 and Vodafone UK say the phone is behaving as if blocked, but they have not blocked it. Apple say its showing as an officially unlocked iPhone on their systems and no-one has tried to block it.I have tried a restore from backup, restore as a new phone using 3.1.3 software, and finally I have tried upgrading to OS4, all walked-through with Apple. Nothing changes. When I restore the firmware I get the _ _ _ _ _ O2-UK in the top-left corner and Waiting for activation - this may take some time message. I have tried swapping in my partners standard O2 SIM. No difference. My iPhone SIM works OK in my partners Nokia 5800.I tried an Orange SIM from my daughters Blackberry, it just says No Service with no request/attempt to activate the phone through iTunes.Finally I have tried putting the Vodafone Egypt SIM back in. The iPhone immediately says iPhone is activated and I get signal and vodafone UK in the top left corner. I am unable to send texts or make calls (I get that same message) but I can receive calls & texts to the Egyptian number.Apple are pointing the finger at O2 saying my account is somehow out of order, as a different SIM works OK. O2 are pointing the finger at Apple saying the iPhone must be faulty as their SIM works in a different phone.I am pretty peed off at this point and if anyone can suggest anything, please, please, please do!!ThanksMessage was edited by: MysticEddie iMac G5, 1.6Ghz, 512Mb, 80Gb Mac OS X (10.5.8)
I have a need for a permanent record of all calls. Other phones I have had (Palm and MS operating systems) have had the ability to upload them to my computer.Is there any way to upload the recent call information to a computer, or to archive them on the phone? Dell Vostro Windows XP Pro
So Im stuck on the USB plug connecting to iTunes screen on my phone and cant restore it or update it because of this error code.Ive used 3 different USB cables, and 3 different computer systems on each USB port.What can I do?

I am having a recurring problem where the media on my iPhone becomes unaccessable. I know the music an movies are there but when I go to the iPod it shows no media on the iPod. Mu systems shows my iPhone is near capacity. This happans all the time. Randomly it disappears or becomes unaccessable. I have to manually go into the phone to delete the data that used to be music or movies then reload it manually. I dont auto sync my phone since I have a lot more media the my phone can hold. I dont know what to do anymore. This happens like once a month at least. Gateway FX-7811P Windows Vista 64-bit

Hi, first time posting. Im about ready to toss out my beloved iPhone 3G. Ive never, in my 1 and 1/2 years of owning the iPhone 3G, come across this type of situation before. Hoping someone can help.I was happily on FW version 3.0.1 with everything working just fine. Then one night, the iPhone wouldnt respond to me pushing the sleep/wake button, so I tried a hard reset, but that threw the phone into either DFU mode or Recovery mode (screen was just blank). So I tried restoring with iTunes, but it wouldnt restore. iTunes would always get to Verifying iPhone Restore with the progress bar, but never complete.The progress bar on the iPhone itself under the Apple logo would also freeze (but where it would freeze seems to depend on the FW version Im trying to restore). I have since tried with FW versions 3.0, 3.0.1, 3.1, and 3.1.2. I have tried with iTunes versions 8.2 and 9.0.2 (fresh re-installs also).I have tried on various operating systems: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, XP, Vita, Mac OS X.I checked my iPhone Software Updater Logs and they all have the same error:2010-01-12 16:21:28.839 iTunes.exe5564:11f0: <Restore Device 0825D740>: operation 14 progress 1002010-01-12 16:21:28.970 iTunes.exe5564:11f0: <Restore Device 0825D740>: operation 15 progress -12010-01-12 16:21:41.022 iTunes.exe5564:11f0: <Restore Device 0825D740>: operation 16 progress -12010-01-12 16:21:41.128 iTunes.exe5564:11f0: <Restore Device 0825D740>: operation 15 progress -12010-01-12 16:21:41.336 iTunes.exe5564:11f0: <Restore Device 0825D740>: operation 16 progress -12010-01-12 16:21:46.956 iTunes.exe5564:11f0: <Restore Device 0825D740>: operation 27 progress -12010-01-12 16:21:49.167 iTunes.exe5564:11f0: <Restore Device 0825D740>: operation 27 progress -12010-01-12 16:21:50.486 iTunes.exe5564:11f0: <Restore Device 0825D740>: operation 17 progress -12010-01-12 16:23:02.544 iTunes.exe5564:11f0: <Restore Device 0825D740>: operation 25 progress -12010-01-12 16:23:02.638 iTunes.exe5564:11f0: device returned AMR error 6 iPhone 3G Windows 7
Whether I get a GPS fix on my iPhone 3G has been very hit and miss recently, increasingly more miss than hit. Even standing out in the open the phone only gives me network triangulation. In addition if I then travel 10 miles it still thinks I am at my starting location so it is not updating the triangulation. This lack of location update by triangulation suggests a software bug.Powering off the phone has no effect.The WiFi also seems to be failing. Whereas I could use it anywhere in my house, it keeps losing my home WiFi signal and even sitting 5m away I only get partial signal. I also can no longer see the numerous signals from my neighbours.Not sure if the failing of both systems is related. Do they both use the same antenna? Is this a hardware fault with the iPhone slowly dying? Intel iMac, iMac G4, Powerbook G4, iPhone 3G, Apple TV, 3G iPod, 2G Shuffle iPhone OS 3.1.2

I have a Iphone 3g with ver 3.0 and I do a lot of calls into voice mail systems and conference calls. Most of these require a pass code or conference number.

Just posting the information as I have seen a few threads on this topic.An Update on iPhone MMS for our Mobility CustomersWe know many of our iPhone customers are eager for an update on our rollout schedule for Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS). We’ve been working for the past several months to prepare our systems and network to ensure the best possible experience with MMS when it launches – and that launch date is: September 25 for iPhone 3G and 3GS customers. MMS will be enabled through a software update on that day.We know that iPhone users will embrace MMS. The unique capabilities and high usage of the iPhone’s multimedia capabilities required us to work on our network MMS architecture to carry the expected record volumes of MMS traffic and ensure an excellent experience from Day One. We appreciate your patience as we work toward that end.We’re riding the leading edge of smartphone growth that’s resulted in an explosion of traffic over the AT&T network. Wireless use on our network has grown an average of 350 percent year-over-year for the past two years, and is projected to continue at a rapid pace in 2009 and beyond. The volume of smartphone data traffic the AT&T network is handling is unmatched in the wireless industry. We want you to know that we’re working relentlessly to innovate and invest in our network to anticipate this growth in usage and to stay ahead of the anticipated growth in data demand, new devices and applications for years to come.We thank you for your business and look forward to keeping you updated on our initiatives.Source: http://www.att.com/gen/press-room?pid=1574 MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.6) Intel Core Duo 2 2.4Ghz 4GB RAM 160GB HD NVIDIA PCIe 8600M GT 256MB

For medical reasons,very anxious to do this. Was a selling feature of car the hands free but alas when I upgraded to the iphone, I lost the ability to use that feature. I got the phone in May and they 3.0 software was not out yet so someone said that might contain a fix as Apple is aware that their phones do not pair with many blue tooth devices. However, it does not appear to be there was a patch to address this problem. I am a recent convert to Apple , just this year but am finding that I am increasing getting locked out of areas that the PC world freely travels in. Now I have an expensive car with an expensive feature that I cannot use. A safety feature as well. Has anyome heard of a workabout for this or whether Apple plans to address this?To me, the difference between quality and a junk product is the manufacturer always being aware of all the smallest details. However, when you think how many of us must drive cars with blue tooth systems that is alot of customers that you want to keep happy. MAC 24" Desktop Mac OS X (10.5.8) MacBook Pro 5.1 ; Iphone ; Ipod
Hi,Hope someone cann help.I have an iphone 3g, i updated to 3.1 a while ago and have had no problems.Last week plugged phone into computer and it itunes told me there was a software upgrade needed - it looked very familiar to the last main 3.1 update but i thought well must need it . phone now has an itunes logo and usb on screen and will do nothing else. I uninstalled itunes and now cant download it again . I have checked all usb ports and my computers systems and they are all running fine.I am a little worried to hear that some people have had this problem and the apple store people could not help - if i have to go to the trouble of going to store god help their staff .I have been through all the trouble shooters .Did think this was greatest phone ever but this is really winding me up - any answers gratefully accepted Windows XP
Everytime I run an update from my itunes into my iphone, it puts the phone in the same mode it was in when I got it. Where all you see is the cable picture and the apple. I then need to restore on another computer that has itunes on it and after that I can restore from my computer. I know 2 other people that have the same issue and we all need to go through the same steps. Last night I went into add/remove programs, on my Dell Lattitude D820 running Windows XP, and removed itunes. I then went to apple.com and downloaded the latest version of itunes. After installing again, I ran the update for my phone and behold, it has went into that mode. Since my computer was running dangerously low on power and I forgot my power cord at work, I had to leave the phone unusable until I got to work. Does anyone know how to fix this? I am getting fed up with this issue and was about to throw the thing through the window. In case you were wondering, I am proficient with computers and work on handheld units that run windows mobile operating systems. I am not nearly as familiar with apple operating systems.

i think i figured out Apples restriction on * or # in phone numbers means I must manually enter all access codes, passwords when accessing external vmail or conferencing systems...can anyone confirm this? Are there any apps that can get around this? iphone iPhone OS 3.0
I finally Upgraded my OS to 3.0 and lost all control options to my Sony system in my car. It does not even recognize the unit, when previously it placed it in accessory mode.

I placed my wifes iPhone in my car and its rock solid works great. iPhone OS 3.0
Im looking for a solid, dependable hands-free kit and the Contour Surface Sound Compact is tempting but the reviews point towards poor reliability long term.

Im interested in hearing peoples reactions to the quality of the voice control feature. I am finding that my success rate on doing anything other than basic voice dialing of an actual phone number is low. On my daughters 3GS, it virtually NEVER works, no matter what you do. I havent used voice command on any other phone so my baseline of experience is limited to company voice mail systems. For example, it appears that if you have entered a name in contacts with a middle initial, you have to say that initial also, which means you really need to eliminate the initial or assign a one word easy-to-remember nickname to the contact (e.g., Mom). The ipod commands are similarly weak in terms of success rate -- and the fact that you cant call up the name of a specific song (just albums, artists and playlists) suggests to me that Apple knew this voice recognition system was weak. Are my expectations too high? Right now, I cant imagine using this for any purpose other than calling out the digits of a phone number. Any tips on how to use this feature effectively would be welcome -- the user manual is not much help on this. Dell Dimension 4500 Windows XP
I recently had a problem with my iPhone and got a new one. The process went well, and most of my information from my old phone was transferred to my new one when I synced with my MAC. However, I lost login information on various applications and had to set up all of my wireless connections and VPN from scratch.Is there a more extensive backup option? iBook Mac OS X (10.5.6) also have an iPhone and use windows systems at work.
If anyone from Apple reads these messages, youll certainly want to know about this...Last night Im watching a movie in my living room when my iPhone rings. The caller had blocked their number from view, so my iPhone showed the callers name as Blocked. I dont typically like answering calls on any of my phones -- cellular or land lines -- when the caller has blocked their number (theyre often telemarketers), but I do have a couple of clients whose phone systems block their numbers, so I went ahead and answered this call. There was no voice at the other end. But in just the few short seconds I held the iPhone up to my ear, I heard the familiar click sound indicating that my iPhones camera had just snapped off a photo. So I ended the call, and then opened Photos on my iPhone to see if, indeed, there was a new photo in there. Sure enough, a photo of my darkened living room with my TV somewhat blurred in the distance (I wasnt sitting still while I had the iPhone up to my cheek) was now in my Photo Roll -- a photo that Im certain wasnt there before. Evidently, whoever this blocked caller was, they had the ability to sieze control of my iPhone to snap off a photograph. Needless to say, this was pretty troubling, so I then went over to my e-mail to see if there were any new Sent Items (like maybe they were taking the picture and e-mailing it somewhere, all by remote control). Fortunately, that had not happened. At least there werent any unfamiliar Sent Items in the Sent Items folder of my e-mail in the iPhone.Five minutes later, another call came in on my iPhone, again from a caller named Blocked, but this time, I declined the call. I havent received any more calls from Blocked since.Note to Apple tech people: I figured youd want to know about this.May just be some computer geek kid trying to annoy. But if control of my iPhones apps can be siezed by a caller to my iPhone, needless to say, thats rather disturbing, and something Im sure the Apply tech people will want to know about. iPhone Mac OS X (10.5.7) iPhone software is up to date, whats that...2.2.1?
I have hundreds of texts on my phone, piled up over time - all unique conversations - mostly unique conversations (from unique senders due to the fact they are from automated systems and based on dates or unique unit IDs). So theyve piled up over months and there are hundreds, if not thousands.How the heck do I delete all of them on the iPhone? Seems the iPHone makes you go into each single one of them, hit delete, then go to the next, repeat. If I have to do that, I will be deleting them for a week.Is there an easy way to delete all of them? Perhaps from the iTunes side when docked?Thanks Mac Pro 2.66/30" Cinema/MacBook Pro 17" Mac OS X (10.5.7)

When on a call, there is no sound through speakerphone, bluetooth earpiece, or the Apple headset w/ mic. I can be heard by the person on the other end through any of these, but I cannot hear them. I hear only light static and distanced muffled sound. When dialing the speaker works and I can hear the tones, but as soon as it switches to the call there is no sound (same with headset and bluetooth). The earpiece (normal phone mode) works just fine, thankfully! But no other options for calling work.Audio works fine in all other modes: iPod, alerts, systems sounds, etc. No damage to the phone. The phone is not stuck in headset mode. I have reset & restored. iPhone 3G 16gb 2.2.1Any ideas? Prof T MacBook Pro 2.4 Core 2 Duo Mac OS X (10.5.1)
HiIm not sure whether this has been covered or not. I cant find anything if it has.I bought an iPhone 3G Pay and Go and ported my old number over to it after setting it all up on the new number (o2 Network UK) The phone and all its systems work fine, but it still shows the original Pay and Go number when I connect to iTunes.I have spoken to o2 Customer Services and staff in the apple store but neither seem to know how I can update to show my current number. Its only a small problem, but I just like things to work properly!Any ideas, please?Thanks Windows Vista
HiWondered if anyone could help. I have a MAC system at home and this is what i plug my iphone into and it is registered to this system. However at work all the PCs are windows based systems. I wanted to know if in an emergency I needed some battery life at work I could just plug my iphone into a windows system via a USB lead and get some battery life. Can this be done, would I experience any problems, wud it wipe or cause problems with the iphone, what if any the ramifications would be??Thanks for any adviceChris
There are three cars in our family, and every car as a stereo with built-in iPod interfaces. Car 1 has a Pioneer system, Car 2 has a Kenwood, and my car has an Alpine system. I cant hear any audio when I connect an iPod touch or iPhone 3G to the Kenwood and Pioneer systems. They can perform functions on the iPhone/iPod touch, such as change songs, randomize songs, repeat songs, etc, however, there is no audio. 80% of the time the Alpine does the same thing; 10% of the time an error is displayed on the head unit; and 10% the iPod Touch/iPhone works perfectly.All three systems can operate my iPod Nano correctly without any problems at all. Because the same problem occurs to all the stereos and because the iPod Touch and iPhone are basically the same minus phone capabilities, I am beginning to believe that the problem is with them and not the stereo systems. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, how can I fix it if it is fixable? Mac OS X (10.5.4)
My iPhone 3G recently stopped receiving any cellular network connection. The first genius bar told me that the phone was liquid damaged and there was nothing they could do to it. My phone has never been wet, never been dropped, never had anything spilled on it, but still my warranty is void and my phone doesnt function as a phone. I have been to two genius bars and talked to a product specialist on the phone and all three are saying Sorry buddy, just buy a new one or have a third party repair it. Then I had to go through AT&T and change my phone plan to support my spare phone, and will have to go back again to change my plan again if the phone ever does get fixed/replaced.The tech on the phone said that a humid environment will trip the liquid indicator regardless of if the phone is ever in contact with liquid or not. This is ridiculous and unacceptable. _Does anyone know of the next option? I have been to two genius bars and called 1-800-my-iphone, where else can I go to get this matter resolved or where I can file a complaint?I have a lot of apple equipment(Mac pro, cinema display, powerbook G4, Final Cut Studio 2, 3 iPods, and dead iPhone), I teach final cut pro, iMovie, and iDVD at a local public access TV station, and I recommend alot of Mac systems to my students.

iPhone 3G. Often the 3 key on the phone keypad becomes UNUSABLE. Example...After connected on a call, Im in one of those automated menu systems, and I need to type in my phone number (909-393-....).So I type 9, 0, 9. When I hit the 3 key the screen goes black. I shake the phone and the keypad screen comes back. I hit 3 and again the screen goes black. No matter what I do, I cant get the 3 key to work!!!Its as if the iPhone thinks that particular combination of numbers 9-0-9-3 is...well...Im not sure what, but it doesnt allow it.Sometimes I can hack around this by tapping a whole bunch of other keys first, combos of * and #, but thats ridiculous to have to do.I googled for other instances of this bug, and I didnt see anything. Is it just me?! I cant help thinking this has something to do with auto-complete or the iPhone interpreting the digits as letters and trying to suggest some other word.Any advice on this is much appreciated. And let me know how to report this bug to Apple so that they can FIX IT!!! iPhone 3G

I recently got an iPhone 3G and the unfortunately thing is that the accelerometer is way off, at least by 10 degrees to each axis. At first I thought it was that one application but found out otherwise, its the systems accelerometer thats really flawed. I went to the genius bar to talk about this issue and the genius said that its really the developers (applications makers) responsibility of implementing a calibration function into the software. But apparently none of my friends iPhone 3Gs have this problem, and she tells me that its really hit or miss.I googled this and some people were able to get an exchange on the spot just like that but I failed to. What are my options now? I cant believe Apple didnt implement a calibration for the accelerometer thats deep down in the system. Then people wouldnt be having this problem and waste time/resource to exchange for a new phone for a little yet major issue like this. I definitely hope theyll do something about this in the upcoming updates. Instead of having all developers doing this, Apple should be the one up for this. Windows XP Pro

As with most of you I too have experienced 3G reception problems, along with EDGE.I live 3-miles from the nearest 3G tower according to AT&T systems Engineer. Typically, from my home location which is considered a fair to moderate 3G reception area (despite living in a Blue reception area), I may see No Svc - 3 bars on 3G and 2-5 bars on EDGE.This past Saturday night, around midnight, I noticed my 3G bars topped-out, along with EDGE.Proves my point all along that it isnt APPLE (my iPhone), as much as AT&Ts towers (a) having LIMITED bandwidth to handle the volume of people accessing their wireless tower networks... ie. the more 3G users or otherwise hitting a tower or within 3G network will determine signal strength and (b) not enough towers.Things arent bad enough, and AT&T are already touting their new 3G wireless laptop adapters to entice more people to jump on their 3G network with their laptops. Lets face it people, vendors (wireless, hardware, software) arent going to spend millions of $$ in ramping up their infrastructure systems and networks before they have the demand or users in place first. They GOT THEIR $$$ from us and now we will have to wait and see how long it will take them to ramp up... I wouldnt hold our breath too long. MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.11) 3g 16 gig iPhone r2.1
I recently had my iphone 3G put through a 15 minute wash with a double rinse. Full load... It was in some clothes... and didnt get put away. My fault... I should have emptied the pockets, but just forgot.Quite upset, I set it on the the forced air heating duct in my bedroom for 3 days (its quite dry forced air) seeing if I could get it to dry out completely before I attempted a start up.Guess what? I started right up after telling it to reset several times! It tried to launch 3 times, then the screen would go back, but upon the forth attempt, connected to its charger. It woke up!Thought Id pass this along.JerryP.S. Its extremely clean now too! 8 Core Mac Pro, 17" MPB 9TB storage Mac OS X (10.5.4) Io HD, Kona 2, MXO, Huge systems, CalDigit arrays ATTO Cards
Hi everyone, having a bit of trouble with our iPhones. My wife and I both have 3Gs and have been syncing just fine until I formatted my laptop. I temporarily synced her iPhone on OSX, and now every time I connect her phone to our XP notebook (main computer for syncing) absolutely nothing happens. It doesnt charge, doesnt pop up in iTunes, no hardware configuration, NOTHING. MY phone works fine, syncs fine, does everything as normal.Is there an issue with syncing between two different operating systems? Please help. Ive looked everywhere.

I spent most of my weekend deleting the 600+ SMS messages from my phone. I am a systems admin who gets several hundred a week, sometimes hundreds in a matter of minutes. It would be nice to have this option on the next phone release. If others feel the same, please keep this thread alive. MacBook Pro 15 Mac OS X (10.5.5)

Hello, I am using a BMW iPod car adapter for 2 years now, also I have a Harman/Kardon bridge for the iPod. Both play the music to either to car radio or the hifi system AND charge the iPod. That worked until my iPhone 3G, since its only playing the music, but not charging it. I went to a store and tested these mini stereo systems from JBL, Bose, Yamaha and others and there the same: playing the music as usual, but not charging the iPhone 3G. I then tried to see what happens with a iPod Touch: it played and charged both. So I assume it has something to do with the 3G itself.Even my old car charger does not charge the iPhone 3G anymore. The phone always says: no supported equipment. Did anybody encounter similar problems?Thanks XP Windows XP Germany
I had a thought? Is AT&T beginning the drive of limiting monthly downloads have any relationship to the iPhone users? Is the use of the iphone taxing their system? According to AP news on my 3G; AT&T is the countries largest internet provider. This will put a damper in iTV and other online video sources... not to mention video conferencing and other work applications.Does providing free wifi access at various locations have anything to do with this?I have left internet providers due to them limiting data. This is like taking a step backwards and not forward...Any thoughts?Message was edited by: Dwain Thompson iPhone 3G, MBP, Ipod Nano 8GB, G4 Tower, G3 Tower, Tita PB, iTV 40GB, Ipod Shuf Mac OS X (10.5.5) Multiple operating systems... yes even Windozzzzzz
Is Apple Care needed? Will it cover if the phone is dropped or physically broken in any way?

To Apple and Mr Jobs,I have been a supporter of apple for about 3 or 4 years now, like the operating system, the product design and its innovative improvements to both aspects of its output. Ive recently spent the most I ever have on computer hardware after a successful period, purchasing a 30 inch display for the MBP I use, a macbook air and an iphone. I had become almost intoxicated with the company, and was not disappointed with the new products.However, what I was dishearten and disappointed at one morning was one of the news feeds delivered to my inbox. Apparently Apple are now actively supporting homosexual marriage and are using funds they have made to advance this cause. I believe that marriage is a sacred between a man and a woman, for the purpose of bringing children, naturally into the world. It is a Holy covenant ordained by God and affirmed biologically for this purpose. Those who engage in same sex relationships are violating our natural and sacred design, which is clearly the of male and female organs in a sexual nature. Anything outside of that is sodomy, which is essentially a violation of another body, regardless of their willing submission, for ones own pleasure and abuse. The fact that you Mr Jobs and Apple, are now towing the line of this popular morally blind crusade of deceitful equality seeking, should I suppose, be of no real surprise. It seems the value of respect, decency and sex has been reduced and almost erased from western culture. I have no problem with people who label themselves gay, but if they practice what their **** entails, then they are violating natural and sacred laws and orders. To do this willfully, without any regret or conscience, actually in pride, brings great social and spiritual degeneration. The fact that you seem so blind to this amazes me.I object to any funds from products I purchase going towards a cause I disagree with and think is morally corrupt and perverted. The promotion of illicit sodomy relationships as decent and right under the banner of marriage, is really appalling in my view. It is essentially thumbing your nose at the great system programmer of this universe, and saying we know you created an awesome system of architecture here, but we think this virus should have equal status and meritYes I would compare God to the Master programmer of these myriad genetic and bio-mechanical systems we have and are, the originator of that intangible and unknown consciousness/spirit within. And I would compare degenerate practices to a virus upon our society. We do not heal a virus by funding and encouraging it, we have to recognize the correct way the system should function and rewrite the code.Which analogously would be repentance of abusive lusts and violence, and a return in humility to holiness, purity, and goodness.What should two same sex who are consenting do if they desire each other?They should recognize that not every desire or thought we have merits or justifies expression. Many thoughts that come can be depraved and violent, it is our choice whether to act upon them, perpetuate them, or reject them as not right and harmful.We were not designed by God or nature to conduct ourselves sexually with the same gender. The acts which ensue from such desires are counter to what is natural, holy, and respectful in our own better judgment and conscience.The argument is usually put forth, if you are not harming anyone its OK, but the reality is a great deal of harm is occurring under the surface and is not recognized.Not only on a Spiritual level for those who believe, but also on a social cultural level. Family breakdown, promiscuity, thoughts, lifestyles spread throughout society like wildfire, and in a liberal society that loses all sense of balance and proportion, an anything goes alternative lifestyle becomes normal.As soon as you devalue sex and marriage, remove God from the equation, then anything goes, and the alternative community is at the forefront of this social motion, it has intertwined with heterosexuals also and now the programming system of order marriage has been essentially broken as all respect has gone.The purpose of marriage is the covenant commitment and bond between the male and the female to further life, creation and human beings. We are designed biologically for that function and it is essential that we respect our design. Respect is a central part of love, if we do not respect our design, and seek to violate it, in order to fulfill base lusts then it is not love. We are to love our fellow man, and woman are to love their fellow sisters, but as soon as **** arises in these cases, all respect and love is gone. It becomes purely a love for the flesh and not a love for the soul, personality and being. Why? Because if there was LOVE between the same sex, they would respect each-others natural design and order and not want to violate and sodomize each-other, regardless of the willingness of the person.Trying to dress up sodomy relationships as legitimate and right by honoring them with the term marriage is very misguided and shameful.I might have know that the bitten apple logo was an atheistic reference to the tree of knowledge and satan.I wont be buying another apple product again. I wish that you wake up to holiness and Spirituality and what is right and true. The earthly physical life is but a blip, what matters is the destiny of our eternal Soul and Spirit, and that choice is in our own hands. We need to repent, humble ourselves, turn from our degenerate ways and sincerely walk in a new light of goodness, holiness and love.I no longer am happy to be associated with Apple and I would encourage anyone else with decency to take a stand against Apples active support of gay marriage and boycott any further product purchases.
Is there a way to have your iPhone recognized by two computers without messing things up? I keep mine synced to my Mac Pro but Im going on vacation and might want to load some things on from my Macbook Pro whilst Im away (Photos, video, whatnot). I am pretty sure that there isnt, havent done the leg work to check and thought I would just ask.Thanks!!! Lots O Macs Mac OS X (10.5.5)
Im thinking of getting an iPhone 3G because:1. Ive been writing iPhone apps with a friend of mine (already have two in the app store) and I think Im probably the only iPhone developer in the world who doesnt actually own an iPhone himself. My friend and partner in this venture has worked extra time doing actual testing on her original iPhone (and weve had other beta testers too), but there is only so much I can do in the simulator. I cant develop multi-touch or accelerometer features without my own device. And I feel I shouldnt put the entire hardware testing burden on her.2. I like the iPhone browser and the ability to use apps and a lot of other aspects of the iPhone.3. I live in Japan, and switching from my AU cell phone to the iPhone is actually a bargain here. There is no money down, and the payment plans start at like $25/month to a max of about $68/month. So its actually cheaper here than in the U.S. Even adding in the $10-$15 extra charge for 24 months until the phone itself is paid off, its no more expensive than my current cell phone. And I can keep my current phone number.So it would seem to be a no-brainer. I should just walk over to my nearest Softbank store and get one, right?The only thing holding me back is this - every time (and I mean every single time with no exaggeration) that I have ever purchased an Apple portable device, including every single one of my many MacBooks and MacBook Pros over the years and the iPod nano 3G I bought last year, have had problems that needed immediate care and replacement or servicing and, in the case of the iPod 3G that awful tilted LCD problem that after 3 exchanges I had to have the consumer affairs office in Tokyo arrange with Apple for me to get a refund on.I love the systems, I am using my MacBook Pro right now as I write this message (already been repaired twice and the trackpad is acting funny again - glad I have AppleCare), but I dread the mental stress of dealing with getting my new out-of-the-box Apple products fixed. I feel they have quality checking problems with certain of the product lines.I just know that there is going to be something really annoyingly wrong with the iPhone 3G as soon as I turn it on - like obviously dead pixels, or a tilted LCD like with the iPod nano 3G, or some weird color discolorations, or something loose and jiggly like with my MBP battery cover or ... I dont know... something. Its just happened too often with me to not be wary.So my question is this. If the Softbank store lets me turn on and check out the iPhone before buying it, what are the things I should look out for?Are there common, well-known issues with the iPhone 3G that I can check for, similar to the tilted screen issue on the iPod nano 3G?Any suggestions would be welcome.I would like to get an iPhone. I just want one with no problems out-of-the-box.Thanks for any suggestions,dougMessage was edited by: Doug Lerner2 MBP C2D 17" Mac OS X (10.5) 3.0 GB RAM
