O.K. guys, I'm leaving for the U.K. (London) next Sunday for a week. I'm returning to the U.S. the following Saturday. I still have my 3gs & also my 5s (will have about 1 month left in the 2 year contract on it). Will AT&T allow unlocking of the 5s with 1 month left in the contract? What is the...

64gb Space Grey 5s ordered October 23 - Apple's site finally state "Preparing for Shipment".

Hi all I have ordered an iPhone 5s & intend to keep my 3gs & get the unlock code from AT&T for use during overseas travel with a local SIM Card, especially when visiting family in France. I'd like to know if you guys think it advisable to retain the 3gs for such purposes, or just trade it in...

Thanks guys, that's answered my questions.

I currently have an iPhone 3gs that I am considering updating to a 5s. My current Data Plan with AT&T is Unlimited. I understand that if I purchase a new iPhone 5s through AT&T, I will be able to "grandfather" my unlimited Data Plan to my new iPhone. Would this still be the case if I purchase...

iBank is a Macintosh App, the vendor I don't recall at the moment (I'm @ work at the moment). I made the switch back in January/February & am now using it on desktop Mac Pro & like it a lot. I've just got to figure out the settings to correctly print my checks, but I rarely print checks right...

I'm not so sure of the need for a step down converter for the different voltage in the U.K. I believe the power supplies are made to work world-wide. The prongs that fit into the wall socket are removable so that you can switch them out for the correct fit. I took my MacBook Pro to France in...

Alright, today I purchased the Apple Keyboard Dock & Camera Connection Kit from my local Apple Store. On line, I bought a Griffin black FlexGrip Case, BodyGuardz Screen Protector, & a Waterfield Designs Exo SleeveCase for the iPad. Mark

Mine was ordered on Friday also. FedEx Tracking says "Shipment information sent to FedEx", last update having been Nov 28, 2010 10:49 AM. It also says "International Economy Distribution", so it's coming from overseas, probably China is my guess. Mark

I've been using Quicken for Mac for my personal finances since the early 1990's, but as far as I know it hasn't been updated since 2007 & trying to get it to sync with an iPhone or iPad is a hassle now (it was a lot easier with my old Palm T|X until it broke). I've seen ads for iBank, which...

While visiting my snow-bird parents for the Thanksgiving holiday in Florida, we were having dinner with family friends last night & one of them had an iPad, which I spent a bit of time looking at. I had been looking at getting an eBook reader & had been debating between the Kindle & an iPad...

O.K., so I updated my iPhone to iOS 4.0.1 when I got home from work this evening & now my email works. Must be something in iOS 4.0 that got changed in the update to 4.0.1.

I have a 3GS that I picked up last September. Overall I've been happy with it, but I haven't been able to check my email using my iPhone in over a week. All I get is the spinning icon & "Connecting". I have 2 email accounts, 1 on Verizon & 1 on Earthlink.(an old Mindspring account). I...

I'm glad to hear that. According to the salesman at the Apple Store when I purchased my iPhone, it needed access to a data network for the GPS to work. I guess that he was wrong. I was wondering about that, because several of the "offline" city maps in the App Store state that they can...

Thanks, Downsized
