how do you set the time limit? ... who set the time limit? ... i never set the time limit...


you can not do update with hong kong apple store when you are in canada ... but you can do purchases with hong kong apple store when you are in canada...


i finally figured out a way to do an "UPDATE" ... you delete the apps required update completely from your iphone ... do a purchase with hong kong apple store when you are in canada ... the worst part for this is you have to double or triple paid for your apps depends how many times you need to update ... this is how you could do update with hong kong apple store if the product is not available in canadian apple store when you are in canada...


i do not know if this is one of the ways apple is making money on their customers ... a global company that not allowing their customers to do apps update globally ... what a laugh...


i still have not received any acknowledged email and feedback/reply from apple support at all after almost fours days after i submitted the form ... what a customer support is this? ... what a laugh...


it is better to purchase product from apple's competitors to see how good the services will be ... DO NOT EXPECT ANY SERVICE FROM APPLE.


cheers,
