About STORAGE_PARAMETERS_WRONG_SET
Hi Experts ,
When i execute ke24 the system popup the error message :
<b>Runtime errors STORAGE_PARAMETERS_WRONG_SET
Occurred on 07/25/2007 at 17:32:11
&INCLUDE INCL_INSTALLATION_ERROR
What happened?
The current program had to be terminated because of an
error when installing the R/3 System.
The program had already requested 1256707392 bytes from the operating

further memory request that there was no more memory space
available.
What can you do?
Make a note of the actions and input which caused the error.
To resolve the problem, contact your SAP system administrator.
You can use transaction ST22 (ABAP Dump Analysis) to view and administer

Many thanks !!!
nothing to do with RAM.. there is not enough free space in virtual address space for heap - see notes

ST22 Short Dump STORAGE_PARAMETERS_WRONG_SET
Hi
We have a NW04 BW 350 system running on Windows 2003 32 Bit/MS SQL 2000 32 Bit.
When I go into RSA --> Monitoring --> PSA it says 'constructing administrators workbench' then fails with the short dump:
<b>STORAGE_PARAMETERS_WRONG_SET</b>
The shortdump reccommends increasing parameters abap/heap_area_dia and
abap/heap_area_nondia, I would have thought you would want to avoid using HEAP memory as this locks the memory into a single work process ?
Looking at the memory consumption in the shortdump :
<b>Memory usage.............
Roll..................... 1709536
EM....................... 108964960
Heap..................... 406948064
Page..................... 57344
MM Used.................. 495709152
MM Free.................. 17059832
SAP Release.............. "640"</b>
EM has only been used for about 100 MB, then it go's to HEAP memory.
Looking at ST02 the system has 4GB EM and only 1.7GB used at 42%, so why would the process only use 100 MB of EM?
ztta/roll_extension is set to default 2GB so it appears EM memory should be utilised more by the work process before going to HEAP memory.
What parameters affect the usage of EM before entering HEAP usage?
Thanks for any advice.Dear friend

No storage space available for extending the internal table.
What happened?
You attempted to extend an internal table, but the required space wa
not available.
What can you do?
Make a note of the actions and input which caused the error.
To resolve the problem, contact your SAP system administrator.
You can use transaction ST22 (ABAP Dump Analysis) to view and admini
termination messages, especially those beyond their normal deletion
date.
Try to find out (e.g. by targetted data selection) whether the
transaction will run with less main memory.
If there is a temporary bottleneck, execute the transaction again.
If the error persists, ask your system administrator to check the
following profile parameters:
o ztta/roll_area (1.000.000 - 15.000.000)
Classic roll area per user and internal mode
usual amount of roll area per user and internal mode
o ztta/roll_extension (10.000.000 - 500.000.000)
Amount of memory per user in extended memory (EM)
o abap/heap_area_total (100.000.000 - 1.500.000.000)
Amount of memory (malloc) for all users of an application
server. If several background processes are running on
one server, temporary bottlenecks may occur.
Of course, the amount of memory (in bytes) must also be
available on the machine (main memory or file system swap
Caution:
The operating system must be set up so that there is also
enough memory for each process. Usually, the maximum addr
space is too small.
Ask your hardware manufacturer or your competence center
about this.
In this case, consult your hardware vendor
abap/heap_area_dia: (10.000.000 - 1.000.000.000)
Restriction of memory allocated to the heap with malloc
for each dialog process.
Parameters for background processes:
abap/heap_area_nondia: (10.000.000 - 1.000.000.000)
Restriction of memory allocated to the heap with malloc
for each background process.
Other memory-relevant parameters are:
em/initial_size_MB: (35-1200)
Extended memory area from which all users of an
application server can satisfy their memory requirement.
I had check parameter value in RZ10 and below is the result:-
1.abap/heap_area_dia = 2000683008
2.abap/heap_area_dia = 2000683008
3. ztta/roll_area = 2000896

Your customized program execution is demanding more heap memory. It may be pointing to memory re-configuration.
Please refer the following SAP Notes and compare your exiting memory parameter settings and do the adjustment according to the available RAM.
[SAP Note 425207 - SAP memory management, current parameter ranges|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/425207]
[SAP Note 88416 - Zero administration memory management as of 4.0A/ Windows|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/88416]
Also analyze the execution of that Customized Program, weather the Coding is optimized, weather the program is executing any Expensive SQL Statement or not.
Refer SAP Note 129813, one alternative is mentioned to deal with this memory related issue by activating 3GB feature in your existing Windows OS. Please refer Microsoft KB article 283037 and KB 268363 for the same. You will have to edit your boot.ini file to append /PAE switch.

Adobe Bridge in Photoshop - How to install Bridge and camera raw? And what is it all about?
Hi everyone! I am actually in love with this adobe photoshop. I used PSCS2 before, but later on upgraded to CS4. But I feel tired in upgrading to CS5.
One time, I found a tutorial in youtube about camera raw, and would really want to use it. But I was wondering how to install the camera raw. I believe camera raw is a plugin? so I downloaded the plugin here, installed it in my PS. I downloaded a file Camera Raw.8bi and paste it on my C drive - C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS4\Plug-ins\File Formats.
I now am very confused, how will I open it? I do not have adobe bridge! After I installed the camera raw, I opened my PS. I clicked the file>then browse in bridge. I had an error, it's "error 2 photoshop11 undefined". Which is what I thought, I might have done something wrong with installing it.
My question is, do you still need adobe bridge installed in order to use camera raw?
If yes, how does it work? How am I suppose to open camera raw?
If no, how am I going to open camera raw without bridge?
And also, where will I download adobe bridge? I cannot find one here for CS4, only adobe bridge for CS5. I am wondering, is it okay to install adobe bridge CS5 and use it with my PS CS4?
I badly need help!WebDAV (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning) is a set of extensions to HTTP/1.1.
The main difference from FTP as far as I can see is that it allows you to edit documents on a remote web server.
WebDAV was used by the Apple server - MobileMe but is not generally supported by hosting services.
Using WebDAV you can mount a directory locally. This was how iDisk worked on your Mac and you could drag files onto it to upload them to the remote directory.
With WebDAV, a number of users can share a directory which is why its used in local networks but presents security problems when using a remote server.
If you are into file sharing rather than publishing, Dropbox or its new rival SugarSync are more appropriate. -

ok i have a advent roma laptop with window 7. my itunes used to work fine, completely. every time i plugged in my ipod it was ok. recently my ipod was not working so i never bothered with itunes, however i have movies/tv prog that i purchased and would like to view them. i have an ipod nano from about 5 years ago, the problem with thet is, it switches on, but the circular control panel does nothing, all you can do is lock and unlock it - nothing else.
i tried to download new version of itunes, then uninstalled my origonal version, incase it was corrupted etc, i then again tried to down load new version and also version that is windows 64bit. still when i select the downlaod to open as son as it is finnished nothing happens. and now my desktop shortcut has dissapeared. before when it was there, id double click it, nothing, right click to open it, nothing.

I cannot receive email properly on either my IPad or my IPhone. I have had them for over a year and they have always worked fine. Until three days ago, when they both started acting up. On the IPad, when I open mail, it says it is downloading about 1,700 emails. At the very end, which takes quite a while to get to, I finally get the most recent ones. The IPad is sending emails just fine.
On my IPhone, when I open mail, it says it is downloading 100 emails, but it doesn't do that. And it gives me no new emails at all. The IPhone is sending email just fine.
I have already deleted the email accounts on both devices and reinstalled them. I've contacted the Internet service provider and verified all the right settings. The Outlook email on my desktop is working perfectly.WMV is a heavily-compressed format/CODEC, and the processing time will depend on several factors:
Your CPU, which is not that powerful in your case
Your I/O sub-system, which is likely a single HDD on your laptop
The source footage. What is your source footage?
Any Effects added to that footage. Do you have any Effects?
Each of those will have an impact on the time required.
The trial has only one main limitation - the watermark. Now, there are some components, that have to be activated, but are not with the trial, but they would be evident with Import of your source footage, if it's an issue.
Good luck,

I have had my IPAD2 for quite a while but haven't activated my cellular data for about a year. I am now trying to activate and when I go to cellular data, turn it on and try to tap view account i just get a message that says "connection to server lost". I could swear the last time I used cellular data you would see the signal in the upper left corner and I only see "no service" there, I am in a location where I know I should have service. Is there something I should do to my IPAD? I tried resetting, I tried clearing cookies and history in Safari (after reading a post n these discussions). I don't know what to do next. My IOS version is 6.1.3. I did go into Network from the general tab and I see it says "SIM not provisioned". HELP and Thank you in advance.
Hello Theresa818,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like the cellular data will not activate for some reason on the iPad.
I found this article that will help you resolve this issue here, named iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular Models): Troubleshooting a cellular data connection, found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4249
Check for a carrier settings update.
Update your iPad.
Toggle the Cellular Data setting off and on under Settings > Cellular Data.
Restart your iPad.
Tap Settings > General > About. Locate the Carrier entry and make sure that your carrier is correct.
If your SIM card has SIM PIN enabled, try turning it off: Tap Settings > Cellular Data > SIM PIN.
Make sure you're in an area of good coverage. If the cellular data connection works in another area, contact your carrier to report the original affected area.
Reset network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Restore the iPad as new.
If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make an appointment at an Apple Retail Store, contact your carrier, or contact AppleCare to troubleshoot further.
I know you may have done one or two of the steps here, so you can skip those.
Take care,

Doubt about report FBL5N of screen field:Open items and Cleared items
hi
i know the report FBL5N is use DDF LDB and the report work flow is BSID->BKFP->BSEG
but i don't know to differentiate Open Items and Cleared items in this report.
Open items and Cleared items stand for a field flag in these table (BSID,BKFP,BSEG )? if true the field is?
or they must be calc in program ? if true what about calc rules?
waiting for help! thank you!Hi,
Here is the difference in Open Items and Cleared Items.
In FI first the document is Open (when it is posted) so the entry is made in table BSID. Once the document is cleared, it will move from BSID to BSAD. And for Cleared item you will see Clearing Document no and Clearing date values updated (these are blank when the item is open).
The only difference in Open and Cleared is via Clearing Document and Clearing Date. If the values are present, it means document is cleared.
Hope this helps.

Follow up on an old thread about memory utilization
This thread was active a few months ago, unfortunately its taken me until now
for me to have enough spare time to craft a response.
From: SMTP%"[email protected]" 3-SEP-1996 16:52:00.72
To: [email protected]
CC:
Subj: Re: memory utilization
As a general rule, I would agree that memory utilzation problems tend to be
developer-induced. I believe that is generally true for most development
environments. However, this developer was having a little trouble finding
out how NOT to induce them. After scouring the documentation for any
references to object destructors, or clearing memory, or garbage collection,
or freeing objects, or anything else we could think of, all we found was how
to clear the rows from an Array object. We did find some reference to
setting the object to NIL, but no indication that this was necessary for the
memory to be freed.
I believe the documentation, and probably some Tech-Notes, address the issue of
freeing memory.
Automatic memory management frees a memory object when no references to the
memory
object exist. Since references are the reason that a memory object lives,
removing
the references is the only way that memory objects can be freed. This is why the
manuals and Tech-Notes talk about setting references to NIL (I.E. freeing memory
in an automatic system is done by NILing references and not by calling freeing
routines.) This is not an absolute requirement (as you have probably noticed
that
most things are freed even without setting references to NIL) but it accelerates
the freeing of 'dead' objects and reduces the memory utilization because it
tends
to carry around less 'dead' objects.
It is my understanding that in this environment, the development tool
(Forte') claims to handle memory utilization and garbage collection for you.
If that is the case, then it is my opinion that it shoud be nearly
impossible for the developer to create memory-leakage problems without going
outside the tool and allocating the memory directly. If that is not the
case, then we should have destructor methods available to us so that we can
handle them correctly. I know when I am finished with an object, and I
would have no problem calling a "destroy" or "cleanup" method. In fact, I
would prefer that to just wondering if Forte' will take care of it for me.
It is actually quite easy to create memory leaks. Here are some examples:
Have a heap attribute in a service object. Keep inserting things into
the heap and never take them out (I.E. forgot to take them out). Since
service objects are always live, everything in the heap is also live.
Have an exception handler that catches exceptions and doesn't do
anything
with the error manager stack (I.E. it doesn't call task.ErrMgr.Clear).
If the handler is activated repeatedly in the same task, the stack of
exceptions will grow until you run out of memory or the task terminates
(task termination empties the error manager stack.)
It seems to me that this is a weakness in the tool that should be addressed.
Does anyone else have any opinions on this subject?
Actually, the implementation of the advanced features supported by the Forte
product
results in some complications in areas that can be hard to explain. Memory
management
happens to be one of the areas most effected. A precise explanation to a
non-deterministic process is not possible, but the following attempts to
explain the
source of the non-determinism.
o The ability to call from compiled C++ to interpreted TOOL and back
to compiled C++.
This single ability causes most of the strange effects mentioned in
this thread.
For C++ code the location of all variables local to a method is not
know
(I.E. C++ compilers can't tell you at run-time what is a variable
and what
isn't.) We use the pessimistic assumption that anything that looks
like a
reference to a memory object is a reference to a memory object. For
interpreted
TOOL code the interpreter has exact knowledge of what is a reference
and what
isn't. But the TOOL interpreter is itself a C++ method. This means
that any
any memory objects referenced by the interpreter during the
execution of TOOL
code could be stored in local variables in the interpreter. The TOOL
interpreter
runs until the TOOL code returns or the TOOL code calls into C++.
This means
that many levels of nested TOOL code can be the source of values
assigned to
local variables in the TOOL interpreter.
This is the complicated reason that answers the question: Why doesn't a
variable that is created and only used in a TOOL method that has
returned
get freed? It is likely that the variable is referenced by local
variables
in the TOOL interpreter method. This is also why setting the
variable to NIL
before returning doesn't seem to help. If the variable in question is a
Array than invoke Clear() on the Array seems to help, because even
though the
Array is still live the objects referenced by the Array have less
references.
The other common occurrence of this effect is in a TextData that
contains a
large string. In this case, invoking SetAllocatedSize(0) can be used
to NIL
the reference to the memory object that actually holds the sequence of
characters. Compositions of Arrays and TextData's (I.E. a Array of
TextData's
that all have large TextDatas.) can lead to even more problems.
When the TOOL code is turned into a compiled partition this effect
is not
noticed because the TOOL interpreter doesn't come into play and
things execute
the way most people expect. This is one area that we try to improve
upon, but it is complicated by the 15 different platforms, and thus
C++ compilers,
that we support. Changes that work on some machines behave
differently on other
machines. At this point in time, it occasionally still requires that
a TOOL
programmer actively address problems. Obviously we try to reduce
this need over
time.
o Automatic memory management for C++ with support for multi-processor
threads.
Supporting automatic memory management for C++ is something that is
not a very
common feature. It requires a coding standard that defines what is
acceptable and
what isn't. Additionally, supporting multi-processor threads adds
its own set of
complications. Luckily TOOL users are insulated from this because
the TOOL to C++
code generator knows the coding standard. In the end you are
impacted by the C++
compiler and possibly the differences that occur between different
compilers and/or
different processors (I.E. Intel X86 versus Alpha.) We have seen
applications that
had memory utilization differences of up to 2:1.
There are two primary sources of differences.
The first source is how compilers deal with dead assignments. The
typical TOOL
fragment that is being memory manager friendly might perform the
following:
temp : SomeObject = new;
... // Use someObject
temp = NIL;
return;
When this is translated to C++ it looks very similar in that temp
will be assigned the
value NULL. Most compilers are smart enough to notice that 'temp' is
never used again
because the method is going to return immediately. So they skip
setting 'temp' to NULL.
In this case it should be harmless that the statement was ignored
(see next example for a different variation.) In more
complicated examples that involve loops (especially long
lived event loops) a missed NIL assignment can lead to leaking the
memory object whose
reference didn't get set to NIL (incidentally this is the type of
problem that causes
the TOOL interpreter to leak references.)
The second source is a complicated interaction caused by history of
method invocations.
Consider the following:
Method A() invokes method B() which invokes method C().
Method C() allocates a temporary TextData, invokes
SetAllocatedSize(1000000)
does some more work and then returns.
Method B() returns.
Method A() now invokes method D().
Method D() allocates something that cause the memory manager to look
for memory objects to free.
Now, even though we have returned out of method C() we have starting
invoking
methods. This causes us to use re-use portions of the C++ stack used to
maintain the history of method invocation and space for local variables.
There is some probability that the reference to the 'temporary' TextData
will now be visible to the memory manager because it was not overwritten
by the invocation of D() or anything invoked by method D().
This example answers questions of the form: Why does setting a local
variable to
NIL and returning and then invoking task.Part.Os.RecoverMemory not
cause the
object referenced by the local variable to be freed?
In most cases these effects cause memory utilization to be slightly
higher
than expected (in well behaved cases it's less than 5%.) This is a small
price to pay for the advantages of automatic memory management.
An object-oriented programming style supported by automatic memory
management makes it
easy to extended existing objects or sets of objects by composition.
For example:
Method A() calls method B() to get the next record from the
database. Method B()
is used because we always get records, objects, of a certain
type from
method B() so that we can reuse code.
Method A() enters each row into a hash table so that it can
implement a cache
of the last N records seen.
Method A() returns the record to its caller.
With manual memory management there would have to be some interface
that allows
Method A() and/or the caller of A() to free the record. This
requires
that the programmer have a lot more knowledge about the
various projects
and classes that make up the application. If freeing doesn'
happen you
have a memory leak, if you free something while its still
being used the
results are unpredictable and most often fatal.
With automatic memory management, method A() can 'free' its
reference by removing
the reference from the hash table. The caller can 'free' its
reference by
either setting the reference to NIL or getting another
record and referring
to the new record instead of the old record.
Unfortunately, this convenience and power doesn't come for free. Consider
the following,
which comes from the Forte' run-time system:
A Window-class object is a very complex beast. It is composed of two
primary parts:
the UserWindow object which contains the variables declared by the
user, and the
Window object which contains the object representation of the window
created in
the window workshop. The UserWindow and the Window reference each
other. The Window
references the Menu and each Widget placed on the Window directly. A
compound Window
object, like a Panel, can also have objects place in itself. These
are typically
called the children. Each of the children also has to know the
identity of it's
Mom so they refer to there parent object. It should be reasonably
obvious that
starting from any object that make up the window any other object
can be found.
This means that if the memory manager finds a reference to any
object in the Window
it can also find all other objects in the window. Now if a reference
to any object
in the Window can be found on the program stack, all objects in the
window can
also be found. Since there are so many objects and the work involved
in displaying
a window can be very complicated (I.E. the automatic geometry
management that
layouts the window when it is first opened or resized.) there are
potentially many
different reference that would cause the same problem. This leads to
a higher than
normal probability that a reference exists that can cause the whole
set of Window
objects to not be freed.
We solved this problem in the following fashion:
Added a new Method called RecycleMemory() on UserWindow.
Documented that when a window is not going to be used again
that it is
preferably that RecycleMemory() is invoked instead
of Close().
The RecycleMemory() method basically sets all references
from parent to
child to NIL and sets all references from child to
parent to NIL.
Thus all objects are isolated from other objects
that make up
the window.
Changed a few methods on UserWindow, like Open(), to check
if the caller
is trying to open a recycled window and throw an
exception.
This was feasible because the code to traverse the parent/child
relationship
ready existed and was being used at close time to perform other
bookkeeping
operations on each of the Widgets.
To summarize:
Automatic memory management is less error prone and more productive but
doesn't come totally for free.
There are things that the programmer can do that assists the memory
manager:
o Set object reference to NIL when known to be correct (this
is the
way the memory is deallocated in an automatic system.)
o Use methods like Clear() on Array and SetAllocatedSize()
on TextData to
that allow these objects to set their internal
references to NIL
when known to be correct.
o Use the RecycleMemory() method on windows, especially very
complicated
windows.
o Build similar type of methods into your own objects when
needed.
o If you build highly connected structures that are very
large in the
number of object involved think that how it might be
broken
apart gracefully (it defeats some of the purpose of
automatic
management to go to great lengths to deal with the
problem.)
o Since program stacks are the source of the 'noise'
references, try
and do things with less tasks (this was one of the
reasons that
we implemented event handlers so that a single task
can control
many different windows.)
Even after doing all this its easy to still have a problem.
Internally we have
access to special tools that can help point at the problem so that
it can be
solved. We are attempting to give users UNSUPPORTED access to these
tools for
Release 3. This should allow users to more easily diagnose problems.
It also
tends to enlighten one about how things are structured and/or point out
inconsistencies that are the source of known/unknown bugs.

Oakland CA, 94612I beleive he means to reformat it like a floppy disk.
Go into My Computer, Locate the drive letter associated with your iPod(normally says iPod in it, and shows under removable storage).
Right click on it and choose format - make sure to not have the "quick format" option checked. Then let it format.
If that doesnt work, There are steps somewhere in the 5th gen forum( dont have the link off hand) to try to use the usbstor.sys to update the USB drivers for the Nano/5th gen. -
This is what I think may have happened. The other day, Thursday Sept 8th, I shut down my pc in the middle of a Firefox upgrade. Now when I try to access Firefox on my pc, I get this error message:
XULRUNNER Error: Platform version '6.0.2 is not compatible with min Version >= 6.0.1 max Version < 6.0.1
What is this about and how can I retsore access to Firefox on my pc?If you use ZoneAlarm Extreme Security then try to disable Virtualization.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder.

I think Apple should be a bit more cautionary about iCloud and privacy. My family shares the same iCloud account as we all enjoy the music we collectively purchase on iTunes; we paid Apple for this feature with some kind of grouped account. We didn't know, however that this joins our devices so that iMessages, contacts, pictures and just about everything else is shared too. The unprivate default seems to be to share everything between all devices vs. to allow access by exception or by choice (or by password?). Sure, when my kids get all my texts I can go figure out why and fix it but that is in my mind the antithesis of privacy and could be quite embarrassing for any family. I guess it is good for stalking the kids or parents though if they don't know about the partyline approach to privacy. Maybe a tech solution would be to have the iPhone show somehow the extent of its audience to its user.
No argument from me about the vagaries of using and sharing Apple IDs. This can lead to unintended consequences, especially in a family situation.
If you're sharing the same ID for FaceTime, you might want to go to Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign in with separate IDs there too. Otherwise, you'll end up getting each other's FaceTime calls.
Also, if you need to migrate everyone's devices to separate iCloud accounts to keep your synced data separated, you can do this by saving any photo stream photos you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data. Once everyone's devices are on separate accounts, you can go to icloud.com and delete each other's data from your accounts. -
A Family Apple ID issue nobody seems to be talking about.
I've read all the threads about multiple Apple ID's and sharing an iTunes account within a family in the new ios5 world with iCloud. But there's another issue I don't think Apple is considering.
Kids grow up. And when they do, you want them to pay for their own iTunes, etc! My younger son still uses my iTunes apple ID, but a couple years ago, my older one made a new one with a new ID as soon as he was able to have his own credit card. That means he has TWO iTunes ID's, that together, with combined purchases, make up his music library.
Pre-iOS5 it has not been an issue. His computer is authorized to play songs from both accounts. But what about when he goes to iOS5 and Lion and iCloud? He will no longer be able to have his library all together in one place. This means burning thousands of songs, losing the name of the artist/song, in the process, or... I don't know what.
Sooner or later, I want my younger son to have his own credit card and buy HIS own songs/apps. But the only way his entire library can be together in the cloud is if I keep paying for them on MY account.
Please make a fix for this, Apple. Let us have a family account and associated family member accounts that allow for kids growing up! Am I missing something?ddizzd,
You're not addressing Apple here, only other users just like yourself. You're just wasting your time and breath on this forum. You need to post here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html -
I only sign in to iTunes' store about once a week or so. But during each of my last 3 attempts (on different days, several days apart) on my first attempt to enter my password and hit submit, I am immediately told that my Apple account has been locked for security reasons and it wants to take me to a page to reset my 'forgotten' password. I am using the CORRECT password.
Perhaps someone else is trying to break into my account or is mis-entering theirs but my account should not be getting locked like this. It is very frustrating to have to go through the reset password procedure each and every time I want to go into the store. It seems to me that Apple really doesn't want me to buy any more apps from them as they keep refusing me entry into my own account, each and every time I have tried to use it, for the past few weeks. I am not their best customer, but they aren't giving me much of a welcome invitation to become one, if I'm going to be treated like this.
I just bought my iPhone 4 less than 2 months ago. I paid extra money to upgrade early, just to get this phone because it was so highly recommended by everyone I spoke with in different stores (BestBuy and Verizon). I even bought the 2 year upgrade to my Apple services in case I needed to ever call them, and so far I haven't had to, yet. But I definitely will call them if this isn't straightened out.
It looks like this other user could be tracked and an email could be sent to them from Apple to let them know what they are doing - trying to sign into the wrong account, and are locking somebody else out of their own account because of their error....and to remind them of their correct information or how to get it and to write it down or save it somewhere so they don't keep on doing this.
I have seen literally DOZENS of other people in these discussions with exactly the same issue that I'm having so it is NOT an isolated incident, and it seems to be a growing problem as Apple's sales and user base continues to grow, so this problem is seriously needing to be addressed in some way, and soon, before they start losing new customers because of it. If I was still within my original 14 day return period with this phone, I would definitely be returning it and buying an Android model because of how frustrating this is to me. If my bank was doing this to me, I'd have already switched banks by now if they hadn't fixed it - just to give an example of how I feel about this.For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,
Melissa
