Wow finnaly some good news :D!
Do I need to present them with my Student ID to in order to get the 5% ?
yes
Itechia offers 200 riyals discount on Macbook’s .. im not sure how many percent though 🙂
What do you mean by “Without Facetime” for the ipod touch 4G?
Both iPhone / iPod Touch & Soon enough iPad / Macbook are deprived from the “FaceTime” Feature.
if model number ends with AB then no FaceTime
this is kind of off topic, but i would really appreciate someones help, i just bought an iphone4 from iweaver and have been offered a ton of free applications to download, the problem is the phone is now synced to iweaver’s itunes account and now i want to sync my itunes to the phone but that would probably erase all the applications right? what should i do…
buy the apps legallyÂ
they were bought legally. i guess, thats what they told me… they said they’re applications worth of $200 i know they’re definitely exaggerating but whatever, so what do u say should i just sync my iphone to my computer and not let them replace the applications that got erased and re-dl the apps on my ownÂ
Get iWeaver to copy all the apps on HDD or USB Flash of yours.
that way you won’t lose your apps & sync it to your account ^_^!
wow that was fast! thats it? thank you so much for help 😀 Â
it won’t work
why not? i actually searched a lot about the transferring apps process and its just too confusing :S
Welcome ^_^!
So do I have to enable facetime when i buy it?
