    Why don’t you just sign the petition, then? 10 down, only 99,990 to go! I’m sure you’ll be listened to!




    Nice selectivity. There are petitions and Facebook pages about this all over the internet aside from the 58 pages in this one, of many, discussions in APPLE's own Support Communities. You suggest this is a hoax? Apple already owned up to this IOS problem to me and replaced my iPhone 4S. I would have preffered to not have gone through the hassle and loss of info on that phone. Which means Apple's rush to release this flawed IOS did few any good and caused a lot of harm to the reputation of this company. Keep the blinders on.

    Probably something wrong with you (or your handset).

     

    Note: millions of iPhone 4S users have probably upgraded to iOS 7 by now with no issues. Perhaps the iOS 7 team deliberately targeted your phone for destruction. Perhaps it was based on your attitude. No one knows for sure and it is unlikely that Apple will explain why only your device "burned up" (sic).

     

    Just to let you know...




    How many is it? 2 million... 10 million? Have they or have they not upgraded without a problem. Get specific and cut the BS. If you're this knowledgeable, throw out some facts. My device overheated due to the installation IOS and did basically burn up. It was diagnosed as such and Apple replaced it. I would have preferred Apple had initially done it's homework and not caused this hassle. (sic) is not used in that grammatical case.

     

    Read these 58 pages and throw out some nebulous answers there:

    Seems like this is the only argument you have.

    You seem to be the argumentative one. I am merely pointing out that Apple is getting complaints worldwide regarding this problem. Seems you have no reply to this. Ostrich time for you?

    I bet many of the posts are from the same people. My 4S works great with iOS 7.0.3. Apple has sold tens of millions of 4S's and only rec'd 58 pages of "complaints".

    Not any meaningful complaints. I’ve explicitly replied already.

    Happy that the money is going to a good cause. That some ultra-rich get to have bragging rights over their friends because they have tons of money they can throw around? Not so much.

    and what's with the StormTrooper head in the reflection?

    Because your mind is interpreting the background as room-sized walls, when in fact they are just a small case of some kind.

    for your information winter starts on Dec. 21st. So, Dec.1st to Dec. 20th is Fall.

     

    Winter: Dec. 21 

    Spring: March 21 

    Summer: June 21 

    Autumn: September 22 or 23

    I'd thumb this up if it hadn't been address several times in this thread. I just don't understand why people post without reading it from the start... :\

    Poor Australia, can't get the Mac Pro until at least March:

    They've sensibly started their seasons on the first of the month though.

    Of course their site says December now but it would have been advertised previously as the fall when it should have said Summer on the Australian site.
