These forums are a user-to-user technical help site. While Apple owns, moderates and maintains the forums, all help is provided by other end users.


This is not a social media site. Do not post selfies. No one here cares what you look like. Don't ask people to

"follow" you. It's not a contest. Such posts will be removed very quickly.


Never, ever, post personal information such as an email address, your phone's IMEI number, or anything else other folks shouldn't know. It's a public forum anyone can see, whether they're a logged in member or not.


You can learn an awful lot about Apple's products by reading current questions and answers. When I got my first Mac, I spent almost three months of my initial time here just reading topics.


Don't expect answers to appear immediately. All users here are unpaid volunteers. Someone first has to see your question. Then it has to be interesting enough for them to even read it. Then they may possibly have a solution to post. No one is on a time table to answer questions. You may get a response in moments, or it could be hours, or the next day.


Many of the senior members sometimes know more than Apple's employees. These are folks who grew up with Apple products from the very beginning of the company.


Never assume a new user doesn't know what they're talking about. The very first post by a new user can be just as valuable as one by a Level 10 user. Automatically discounting a new user's suggestion would be the same as assuming Neil DeGrass Tyson's response was untrustworthy for no reason other than it was his first post as a new user. That, and really bad answers get jumped on very quickly by other users, "Don't do that!"
