International texting charges iPhone

My friend is on a class trip to Germany. He has been texting me on his ipod, through wifi, with a texting app called text free. I have an iPhone with unlimited texting. We have not been texting through iMessage, just SMS, but he is sending them from his ipod. Will I be charged gobs of money for "international texting" or is it part of my data plan since he is using wifi? HELP!

iPhone 4 16gb Factory Reset with Other showing up question

i just factory unlocked the iphone 4 with my provider. i did a full factory reset and set up as a new device. currently it displayed 439 MB "Other" and 13.27 GB free. i understand that a part of the 16gb is used for the ios operations. so that i should have somewhere between 13.6 - 13.8 GB of actual free space. i am wondering what the 439mb of "Other" is and if its something i can ger rid of.

lower volume button on my iPhone 5 stopped working. it going to be free to get new iPhone

Isn't this covered under manufacturer defects? Meaning, I should be getting a new 5 for free. I do have Apple Care.

Why no international warranty option for iPhone 5

Why is there not an option available to extend the iPhone warranty to an international warranty? Especially with a phone that you tend to take with you whenever you travel having to go to the country you bought it originally is a pain and sometimes not feasible. In my case : when I travelled from Hong Kong to a business trip in the Netherlands and then on to the US my iPhone 5 got stolen at the airport in Hong Kong. luckily I only had a prepaid SIM for Hong Kong in the iPhone so I went online and ordered a new simlock free  iPhone 5 at the Dutch online Apple store to be delivered in Amsterdam a few days later. So far, so good. I am currently in China and my iPhone 5 sleep button broke down. As I had to be in Hong Kong last week I thought I would stop by the Causeway Bay Apple Store after making a genius bar appointment. They checked the iPhone 5 and confirmed the sleep button was broken and it would be swapped for a new one. However on checking my serial number they told me I had to go back to The Netherlands to get it fixed.... So here is a problem, I am not planning on being there any time soon. Why is it not possible in the global economy we live in to get an international warranty?  I called Apple Care and they suggested I could try in an Apple store in North Carolina where I am due in a few weeks, but they could not guarantee they would swap the phone. Now the end of July  I am due in the UK and from what I read now an iPhone bought in any EU country could be swapped in another EU country. so that would mean I could swap it in London?  Very odd.  Always travel with my MacBook Air and MacBook Pro and these do have international warranty.

How can I check percentage of my iPhone 5's original battery capacity

I'm wondering if there's any way I can check what the capacity of my iPhone 5's battery is compared to its original capacity.  I know Apple will replace the battery for free if it is under 50% of the original capacity since it's still covered under the one-year warranty but I'd rather know that's the case before I send it in and go without a phone for a week.

4S-No sound from speaker no mic no vibration doesn't detect headphones iPhone 4

Hello, I just replaced my 4S's display, and after reassembly the iPhone powered on as normal, but - there is no sound, mic or vibration what so ever. It doesn't detect a headphone jack either. The mute button and volume buttons work just fine, volume control shows up but there is no vibrate or sound at all.  So this basically makes it useless as a phone ... Anyone know what could be causing the issue? I tightened the screws, tried reconnecting the cables and the speakers. Hoping this is not an issue with the audio IC. Definately not software related, tried full DFU restore, tried cleaning the dock connector and jack, the iPhone is NOT stuck in dock connector mode. TL;DR: No sound from any speaker, no vibrate what so ever, no mic, doesn't detect headphone jack. Anyone know what's wrong? Could it be a damaged Audio IC (don't really see how this can happen)? Broken flex cable?

iPhone won't Charge iPhone 5

Okay so i had problems with my iPhone earlier. It would power off randomly when I was or wasnt using it. And i also charged it when I had 30% but on the top right corner for the battery icon, where its suppose to show ' charging ' it showed Fully charged. and after it died, I plugged it back in with it saying its charging. The symbol with a low red battery with a charging sign. It stayed on that symbol for more than 12 hours and never turned on to the lock screen. And if i take it out of charge, it completely shuts off.But when i plug it back in , it has the apple symbol from when you turn it back on after you powered it off. It did that symbol repeatedly. Please help. The problem: Won't charge or turn on to lock screen  Is there anyway I can do it besides taking it to Apple? Thanks (: I don't think I backed up anything, but I maybe did and I have lots of things on my phone. So is there any other solutions that I can use besides restoring it?

Mic problem iPhone 4

My iPhone 4 doesn't record any audio when I record videos, nor does it record any audio when using video apps like vine and snapchat. I am still able to record voice memos, which seems strange. I have no problems making phone calls.   **Just to get the obvious out of the way**  - no the phone is not under warranty. - please do not suggest that I take it to a mac store, I am aware of this option, I am looking for alternative solutions. - It's definately a 4, it's not a 4S

I need to print an iMessage conversation going back almost 2mos. HELP iPhone 3G

I have an iPhone 4S. My software and iTunes versions are up to date. My computer runs Windows XP (not so up to date, I know). Here's my dilemma: I'm in the middle of a legal battle (details don't really matter). Point is, I need the ENTIRE conversation to use as evidence in court. Phones are not allowed in the courtroom so I'm left with no other option except to figure out how to print them. I have called my service provider to try and get the transcripts. They told me to call the Apple Help Center. I called Apple, they told me to talk to my service provider. The typical run around. I finally spoke with someone who somewhat sounded like they knew what they were doing, but their only suggestion for me was to download an app that would allow me to export the messages off of my phone onto my computer. Unfortunately, he could not suggest any app inparticular (go figure).  Here's my other problem: because I'm in the middle of a legal battle, I'm a little short on funds. Does anyone know of any programs for download that are similar to BackupTrans that I can use for free? OR, there is an app in the AppStore called "SMS Export" made by Fabrizio Farenga for $5.99... Can anyone tell me if this app is worth the 6 bucks to purchase (does it actually work?)? I desparately need this conversation to use in court. Someone please give me some ideas!

YouTube videos load slower on WiFi than LTE iPhone 3G

I have noticed that YouTube videos (using the Google app) have difficulty loading on my iPhone 5 when connected to WiFi.  They will load, but every 10-15 seconds it will stop and try to buffer more video, making the viewing experience entirely undesirable.  I've tried switching WiFi off and the videos load without issue.  I understand that having a WiFi connection enabled makes the video stream at a higher quality vs. LTE which may explain the difference in speed. My question is - does this happen for everyone or just me?  I've run a few speed tests on my WiFi and I am getting the speeds I would expect given the internet plan I have.  Web pages load fine, apps download quickly, etc.  The only issue is with YouTube.  Is this a limitation of YouTube bandwidth or an issue with the app or an issue with the phone?  I heard today that around 1.3 million YouTube videos are played every minute... so if it is just a limitation of YouTube then I guess there is nothing I can do about it... Any help/feedback is appreciated.  Thanks you reading.

iphone 5 doesnt accept ID password facetime and imessage not working

Im not sure if its to do with the new update 6.1.4 but my imessage suddenly stopped working. I checked my settings and saw that my email addresses associated with it were deleted. I would do hard resets but it wouldnt solve the problem. Then imessage was only partially working, sending imessages to certain individuals and text messages to the others. When i would try to add my email it would say that my password or ID is incorrect. I was thinking, no this could not be. I signed in and out of Itunes with no problem. I even signed on appleid.com and it worked. I tried it on my ipad which worked. I was scratching my brains. so I had an idea, I proceeded to reset network settings......BIG MISTAKE!!! Now, along with my imessage and facetime problems, I cannot connect to my wifi at home. when I enter the password it says it is incorrect. I have also tried entering the wifi manually but to no avail. I connected my iphone to itunes but it wont back up my data saying an error occured but it doesnt specify the error. Iv also noticed that if i press and hold an app, and it starts shaking, the crosses next to the apps that I hav purchased whether it is free or not does not show the 'x' next to them so I cant manually delete an app. What is going on? Is so frustrating because now I have to rely on my data and its depleting fast. Iv booked an appointment with the Genius bar for next week but I am hoping I can sort this out before hand. My first iphone and I was enjoying it up to now, not happy at all!

Brand New iPhone 5 screen pressure sensitive

Hi Everyone!     I have a brand new iPhone 5 (white if it matters) It has never been dropped, exposed to water or anything. Like I said it is brand new. I have probably only had it for a week or two now. When i lightly press the screen it is like the LED's behind the screen are being squished. (Same situation as listed below [link] except my screen is brand new and has NEVER been replaced.)  Should I take it to Apple or can I fix it at home. Also my Dad said I only get one iPhone and I don't get a replacement so will it be free to replace if I have to?                                                                                          Thanks In Advanced                                                                                                               David This is the link to the similar problem except it ishttp://www.ifixit.com/Answers/View/105184/iPhone+4+screen+is+very+sensitive+to+p resure+after+a+replacement

How much will it cost to repair smashed back of my iPhone 4

Okay, so today I leant over to pick up my ruler which I'd dropped and my iPhone slipped out of my pocket. Ironically, I'd put it in the inside pocket so it wouldn't slip out, and I've had it for 6 months and have been very careful with it until today. Needless to say I am absolutely gutted about this, and am hoping to replace the back of it. Looking online, some people claim that if I took it to an Apple store, they would either replace it for free or I would have to pay £29, however I'm not sure whether Apple have changed their policy about free first time repairs since the release of the iPhone 5/4S. I'm willing to pay because it was my own fault, but I wanted to know how much it would be before waltzing into an Apple store.  One other thing, would I have to tell my Mum? Because she recently told off my younger sister for smashing the screen of her iPod and used me as an example of being careful, and I know she'd be devastated by this too. (Not to mention how much she'd freak out about it!)  I don't want to replace the back myself with cheaper parts from eBay because I know it'll damage my warranty if I do (I'm not sure whether smashing the screen comes under the warranty, I don't think it will.).

it possible to sync one iPhone to two Macs One for music library and one for contacts emails etc

At home I have two Macs, one for work and another which acts as a sort of entertainment hub storing all my music, podcasts and videos as well as being for the family to use. Is it possible to sync my one iPhone to both Macs, with the work one just syncing things like my contacts, emails, calendars and apps while the other Mac would sync just the podcasts and music to the iPhone.Would this cause any problems and what is the correct way to go about this? Thanks for any help, tips and advice.

IPhone 5 3 problems.

Hey guys Ive had my IPhone 5 since the day it came out, so now it had started to have its problems, and more than one. Ive got three:      - brightness turns down automatically to the point I cant see the screen and when I go back to settings the brightness bar is still up to to bright and I just have to touch it for it to come back to normal.          - When I call someone or when someone call me, the place where I should hear them talk back does not work, I have to hear them on the speaker.      - When I charge my phone the lightning connector doesnt have a good connection and cuts out of charging looks like its lose.  Has anyone had one of these problems, and how was it fixed? or when you gave it to Apple, how long did it take to be fixed? or did you get a new IPhone? Or feel free just to talk about what you think   Thanks guys!

Can t find my audibook in itunes. iPhone 3G

I just bought an audibook off of itunes.  It was my first purchase from the itunes store.  I paid for it,  downloaded it, synced it ot my iphone.  The itunes library clearly showed the audiobook listed on my phone when I plug it into my computer.  However, I can't figure out how to actually play the book on the phone.  When I go to "audiobooks" on my itunes app is just brings up the store.  When I got to "more > purchased" I get a list of music, movies, and tv shows which all ready as empty.  When I refind the audibook in the store it lists it as "downloaded" but doesn't have anything on the page about actually accessing it.

Apple's 1 year warranty cover scratched camera lens iPhone 5

I (somehow) managed to scratch my iPhone's saphire crystal lens. I want to know if I can get a free replacement under Apple's 1 year warranty, and if not how can I go about fixing this. It doesn't affect the camera's focus, but it does leave an annoying little line in all of my pictures I take with it. I fear that it might lead to bigger troubles if I don't get this fixed eventually. What can I do about this?

I have Chinese iPhone brought back to Australia-How to get standard apps

So, my lovely GF brought me back an iPhone 4 from China. Yes, it's a real iPhone, not hacked, however, the standard apps are slightly different and I'd like to bring back the option to share videos to YouTube and get rid of the Sina Weibo, Youku and Todou integration since I have no intentions of using these apps. I was able to restore my data from my iPhone 3Gs without an issue and it's been updated to iOS 6.1.3. I've read in other posts that these applications could be removed by removing the Chinese keyboard from the settings, however, this does not work for the Chinese iPhone and English is the only option selected.

iPhone Replacement

I recently dropped my iPhone 4S into my pool, and now parts of the screen are not working properly. It's been more than a year since I've had my iPhone. I know Verizon will not cover it, and apple will not for free. Does anybody know if they will replace it for a fee? And if so, can I have the website to order a replacement.

need help using iErase to zero out iphone 3GS

I'm about to buy an iphone5 and need to wipe my iphone 3GS.  After backing it up on itunes, I restored the old iphone to erase everything.  I  had planned to  then install  iErase to zero  out the free space.  Here's my  problem.  After I restored my phone I couuldn't figure out  how to put iErase back on it.  While  in itunes, I selected the  iErase app to install  and hit sync.  Itunes proceeded to sync everything back onto my  iphone (apps, contacts, etc.).  I must have missed a step.   I tried to restore again.  After this eraseed everything, I connected it to my Mac and   itunes started to automatically back up my now "restored" iphone despite the fact that I  have automatic back ups deselected.  It eliminated my previous backup that had all my stuff.  Fortunately I was ables to select an older backup to restore and was able to retrieve my data. This has been a major pain.  I need to do all of this before I trade my phone  in at AT&T when I go to buy my iphone5.  Can anyone help? Thanks
