Yes, with the lineups of my lenses, PSP, NDSL and now iPad. I guess they will really think I'm earning a fortune here. *because now you are "richer" XD By the way, I can't register an US iTunes account, I'm stuck at the payment page and there is no "None" selection for me. |

It works until the last stage whereby it mentions credit card is declined.
Now what am I supposed to do when I can't even have an iTunes account? I have the exact same problem as theirs: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?t...552101&tstart=0 Just too sad. Haiz. |

QUOTE(arthurlwf @ Sep 29 2010, 12:19 AM) Have you read this section 2. Set Up An iTunes Account. How? in this thread https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1563492? Yes, read everything! It seems this problem is so popular over the world now! I really feel like throwing my iPad away. Can I register a Malaysia account first? Anything in Malaysia store? |

Yes, tried all the methods. Didn't work. I never used my Malaysia CC for US account because I know it won't work and clicked on none.
Even now, using CC with Malaysia iTunes account doesn't work as well. OK, fine. I'm having a dummy set of iPad. WTF. My worst experience with a gadget. I really don't know what I can effing do now. This post has been edited by fruitie: Sep 29 2010, 12:36 AM |

QUOTE(davidgary73 @ Sep 29 2010, 12:41 AM) I think iTunes is getting hammered hard or they are having issues. Just wait for a day or two as we can see, this is happening in iPhone subforum as well where users are not able to sign up etc. I have no faith, look at these people: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?t...art=30&tstart=0Been weeks already, no solution. If I were to know this will happen, I'll not buy it in these few days. I can't do anything. My MiFi is not ready, I can't connect to the Internet. No iBook, nothing. |

I guess the problem was I followed the steps and saw "None" for payment but just that it failed me and the message kept prompting in, no matter I used in iTunes US, Malaysia or Singapore.
I even tried registering using my credit card in iTunes Malaysia, it failed as well. I wish I have the screenshot for you guys. Anyway, Arthur has helped me to register one and I'm now able to get my stuffs from Malaysia, at least. By the way, can you guys suggest to me to any app that can open MS Office's files, that is free? Any other suggested apps? |

QUOTE(Agito666 @ Sep 29 2010, 09:29 AM) Sifu Benny's word last time: "Officework Suite : iPad comes without any. Cheapest is to purchase Quickoffice US$15 or you buy Apple default iWork package of Pages, Keynote, Numbers - each will cost you US9.99, meaning all 3 will cost you close to US$30. It comes with just a simple note app. I bought Quickoffice and Keynote" Anyway, I might need someone's help to register the US iTunes account for me. Probably will need to bug Arthur again, too bad la I can't seem to register. |

QUOTE(benny888 @ Sep 29 2010, 11:40 AM) With a uS iTunes account, you cannot use Msian credit card to purchase. You have to buy iTunes gift certificates to purchase any apps, music, or video from iTunes store USA. Some forumers here are selling such certificates. Free apps/music/video NO need , just click on it will do Yes, understood and tried your method and others' as well. Used "None", and when I wanna proceed further it has an error message on top.OMG. It is so difficult to explain to you guys. I'll screenshot tonight if it is still persists. Else, read this... I'm having the same problem as theirs: http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.j...tart=0&tstart=0 |

QUOTE(TechnoDude94 @ Sep 29 2010, 01:53 PM) @fruitie: The problem was... I didn't manage to register an account, how to "sign out" when I'm not signed in in the first place? 1. In "Settings" -> App Store -> Sign Out. 2. In the App Store (app) -> Change location to "US" (bottom left) -> Download a free app -> Select "None" for payment" -> Create a new account -> Enter fake US-based details (location, etc, etc). Just trying to help. I hope it works. I've got 3 iTunes accounts. One for US, one for Malaysia and another one for Malaysia with credit card attached. But anyway, will try again. |

Phew. Came back from LYP, bought an Aztech modem router, I do not need a small MiFi because I only need it when I'm in my room. At the office will use office WiFi, so just bought this at RM 108.

Wee, been playing with iPad for hours now and bought the Atomic Web browser! Brilliant when it can open unlimited tabs at once!

QUOTE(mjoe @ Sep 30 2010, 01:57 AM) Typing something with keyboard on, and try rotate ur ipad, did ur keyboard disapear? and it wont come back... Atleast it happened on my 4.2 beta. No issue on my version, it disappears but it still comes back with a touch. I use this post to try out. QUOTE(bidfordun @ Sep 30 2010, 07:33 AM) really? but when using atomic web browser now, when i change to another tab, the youtube video can still run simultaneously. I did try on Facebook embedded video (hot linked from Youtube), it won't work.But if on Youtube site, it works. By the way, guys this may sound stupid to you all but I'm a new user of iPad, how do we actually highlight a few sentences to cut/copy it? So far I found it's "Select All" but I only want a partial only, how? |
