Activation problems with Cingular. Please help very frustrated

Ok, here is the deal, I live in Orlando, FL most of the time, but I am in Michigan and I bougt 2 iphones today, that was 1000 bucks, plus 200 in security deposits. I went to cingular, payed the deposit, and now that im at home, i cant register the product. I have been on the phone with cingular suppost getting different reasons why i cant answer but i still want to check it out here. Im getting an address verification problem. The guy is saying that when we payed the sucurity deposit, we put our florida market address on file with the Pre Approved Credit Check Number. THere saying our sim cards are michigan sim cards, and its not letting me register because of the sim cards are not in the same market as the credit check number. I tunes keeps giving me an error of address though. Is anyone receiving this same problem? The error is saying that they cannot verify the address on file, as the address that im typing in, even though it is the same address. We tried changing everything to michigan, and still got the same problem. We changed the address on the credit check number, and the address that im trying to register in michigan.
Please Help
Rodd,
Thanks guys
You can only imagine that im upset not being able to even power the thing up. It wont let you go past the emergency call feature since its not activated.

Heres what you have to do Rodd...I used to be a RSM for Cingular.
First you need to cancel your first activation because your sim cards have been set up with activation in Michigan you will get a Michigan area code, prefix, etc. If you did not set it up with the exact are that you paid the deposit in, then you will not be able to activate it.
Ex: if I live in Texas, but want a California number, I have to go to Cali and set up my account, and then come back to Texas and I will have my Cali number while living in Texas.
If you tried to set it up wrong to many times it flags your account.
Either go back to the store you got them in and pay the security deposit again, or go to the closest ATT store in the area you would like to have your area code, prefix, etc. in.
Example: if you want a Michigan number, then go to Michigan..and set up your account all in the same place that you want your number....Billing addresses can be different but the activation address will be where the iPhone number is given from.
Hope this helps..God bless

  • Lenovo S205 & Windows 7 64bit. Problems with graphics, please help

    Hi, 
    I recently bought a Lenovo s205:
    AMD E-350
    It came with 1GB but I upgraded it to 4Gb RAM (1333 running at 1066)
    Windows 7 64 Ultimate.
    I have tried also Windows 7 32 (Professional, ultimate) and all versions give me the same problem, I will explain here:
    I have tried in AHCI mode and IDE mode from the bios and done fresh installs of Windows. Still the same.
    After installing all the drivers, I get randomly in different programs "black" or sometimes "white" menus. Whenever I set the cursor on the menu (White or black part), the letters start showing up.
    On Firefox for example, it happened where you write the address (Ex: www..) And when searching images too.
    I have tried the original drivers that the Lenovo's website has for the S205 and the latest from Ati/AMD and nothing solves the problem.
    What can this be? Faulty ram? Faulty OS? Problem with the graphic card drivers?
    Please help, it is so frustrating. 
    Thank you so much. 

    Thank you very much for your help. 
    I will try capturing some screenshots if that helps.
    I can discard the problem with the ram at the moment. I have tried a new set of ram (two 2gb modules = 4gb in total). The problem persists, even when they are tried individually. I also tried the original ram module the Lenovo came with (1module of 1gb), alone. Problem persists too.
    However, I do not have a problem trying the VGA output. Will this help too? As I do not have any screen with HDMI at the moment. 
    What I will do too, is to try a Windows 7 from another disc, a Home version 32 bit. I hope this can get the problem fixed.
    The main issue is that I bought this computer from Germany (From a store on eBay) and came with DOS. I will have to return it to the seller, I assume, if the rest fails to show any improvements.
    Thank you for your reply and any more suggestions are welcome.

  • Another person who has a problem with Flash - Please Help!!

    I have a Dell Dimension 4700 Intel (R) Pentium (R) - 4 CPU   2.80 GHz    2.79 GHz    504 MB of RAM
    For a few years now I would have to restore the computer to an earlier time after an update was done in order to view youtube, etc.  It seemed that when my computer did an automatic update it would mess up the flash player.
    My husband just recently did another update and now the flash isn't working and the computer won't restore anymore.
    I keep getting the following messages:  adobe flash player active x set up failed to install 19166
    program error:  failed to register      status installation complete
    I have uninstalled and installed the flash several times
    everytime i go to install flash it says:  Adobe Flash Player 10:  This application has been downloaded before.  Reload?
    Then I get:  Your security settings do not allow websites to use ActiveX controls installed on your computer.
    I don't want to take this somewhere because I have a feeling that will just wipe the computer clean and I have a feeling it is something stupid that I'm not doing.
    Please Help.

    OK...Check, check...did all that. I am cutting and pasting a segment from the flash troubleshooting page because its exactly what is happening to me. There were no responses to help this person.
    "I've tried installing flash player 9 but am not able to do so. It will begin installing but when it gets to 'items remaining: 4' the progress bar continues to move and underneath says searching but nothing happens. I tried leaving it on all night but same thing when I came back in the morning. When I close the installer it then says 'stopping now may result in an incomplete set of software' Also, when I tried uninstalling previous versions, the uninstaller does nothing. It says 'items uninstalled: 0' and 'processing', but same thing, the thing spins but nothing happens. i tried the other steps given to see if that helped but nothing seems to work."
    Here is the page...

    I tried some of the suggestions above the last two posts. But it looks like my problem is the same as those.
    I even tried to post on there but from what I see it looks like I have to have flash to do it...I get the page with the blue lego brick.
    I'm pulling my hair out. I didn't realize how much of the internet ran on flash.

  • After interrupting iPhotos import to mac from iPhone, it is not allowing me to shut down computer as it says 'Importing photos from library' i also cannot import photos from phone! Please help, VERY frustrating. Thanks.

    After recently purchasing a mac i decided to upload my photos from my iPhone to iPhoto. I accidentally disconnected the charger and now whenever i click 'import photos' it tells me that iPhoto is 'importing photos to library' which i can tell you it is not. because the phone is not connected and it has been doing it for days now.i tried to force quit and it hasn't work. It won't let me shut the computer down now either as it thinks it is currently importing something so i have to wait for the computers battery to die which is ridiculous. Becoming increasingly frustrated with this problem and not sure where else to turn. Please help. Thanks, Neil.

    If the  ➙ Force Quit method won't let you shutdown iPhoto try this command in the Terminal:
    killall iPhoto
    followed by the Return or Enter key
    It might take more than one go for it to take.
    Failing that close all other applications and hold the power button down until the computer shuts down.  Reboot and try iPhoto again.

  • 6 weeks of problems with Ical- Please help

    For 6 weeks now I have been having problem after problem with Mobileme, Ical, and contacts synchronizing with my imac, laptop, and iphone after at least two years of no problems. I have been to the Apple store over 6 times and have had 3-4 hour long chats with Apple technicians and have had 3-4 emails with an advanced technicians. Everyone is quite nice and really seems to be trying to help fix the problems, sadly, this situation is still not resolved. My confidence that Apple knows what is going wrong or knows how to fix it have really taken a hit and I'd ask anyone who has the savvy to help me with this to PLEASE help me out here.
    The current situation is:
    Cannot log into Mobile me to get my calenders - Apple can't either. We both can log in to idisc, contacts, etc. though all are duplicated 2-3 times.
    If you try to sync with the phone, including after re-setting what appears to be a correct calender on to mobileme first, the phone calender will appear completely blank.
    Manual sync with the USB works. However, even if you totally wipe the whole iphone and then install just what is on the computer, some appointments are missing on the iphone! I have verified that there are just the correct calenders listed on the imac so the appointments missing on the iphone are part of the calender listed on the imac. (When I wiped the iphone and choose automatic sync, numerous calenders were seen. Part of the reason there were so many calenders at all was part of the problem I initially had and the result of apple technicians trying to fix it!)
    I now have. mac and .me mail accounts listed on my iphone despite the fact that the .mac account had been replaced with the .me account of the same name by at least two technicians at the Apple Store and Ichat.
    I need help immediately and cannot either wait for Apple or have much confidence they know what is going on.

    Yes this has been a nightmare for me and started with duplicate dates, followed by duplicate calenders, and 2 years of lost data, followed by duplicate contacts. I am clear that some of this is the direct result of how I was advised to fix my problems.
    I have seen 2-3 people report problems around this same time frame. The techs at apple have denied a system problem from that time but like you it is odd that a system that seemed to work perfectly went wrong at that for at least the two of us and three other people that I know of. I have only reviewed a portion of the posts.
    My conclusion is that Apple does not provide adequate warnings or instructions regarding how to interface with ical, syncing with mobile me, or what needs to be backed up even though one is putting one's data on the cloud and 1-3 other devices. Further, the protocols Apple techs use to deal with these kinds of issues seem to be leading to more problems.
    I have saved a comprehensive log of my chats with Apple and my interactions with the "genius bar" at Apple that I'd be willing to post here or share via email that shows how this process evolved and what choices were made to remedy the situation.
    To briefly illustrate my point consider these things I've learned in the process:
    1). Apple does not design all of it's key software with auto back-up like they do with Final Cut, or Intuit does with "Quicken". Apple told me that they expect someone would use the "export" or " back-up iCal" from the file menu. They also said that I had the option of using the utility "back-up" or "Time Machine" if I wanted "auto" back up.
    I must admit to feeling pretty stupid about all of this until I remembered that Apple emphasized the automatics of "the cloud" as next step after the "Palm". Even the "Missing Manual" bills it that way. So... I just plugged and played as they say and did not actively make sure that I needed to back Ical up! I also thought that since my iphone backs everything up when you synchronize that everything would be saved. Anyone have any ideas how to get your calender off the iphone back up if the cloud and your computer files are wrong? I've been told that you cannot. I am also a bit unclear about what files need to be backed up if I want to use Time machine or back up to protect my Calenders? Again can't they just say so?
    2). It has come to my attention after talking to 4 different Apple reps that the Itunes interface is a bit unclear. I was told that IF YOU USE MOBILE ME, YOU CANNOT HAVE THE SYNC BOXEXS CHECKED FOR ICAL, MAIL,CONTACTS, OR YOU WILL HAVE DUPLICATE ENTRIES. I am not sure if this is true or what started the whole problem. It does kind of make sense given there are Mobile me options in the system prefs for what to do with them as well.
    Apple should have told me the above after they tried to resolve this duplicate problem last December by resetting my mobile me with my laptop, deleting and reinstalling my account on my phone and syncing with Mobile me. If they had, I would not have had the duplicate entries and as well as accounts a few weeks later. I also would not have tried using the same method to re-fix the problem leading to all my calenders prior to mid December being destroyed!
    Why wasn't that warning in the itunes sync dialogue box to begin with?

  • I have adobe premiere elements 10 and I am having some problems with it please help

    So here are the problems I'm having with Adobe Premiere Elements 10:
    1. Transitions will not load. The word loading pops up and it won't come up.
    2. The videos won't play smoothly. When I press play it skipps in a way it won't play smooth which makes it really hard to edit.
    3. Keeps closing out on me. It will have a thing that pops up that says "Adobe premiere elements has stopped working and closes out of the program. It does it constantly.
    Please help me I don't know what is wrong with it.

    The first two issues sound like a video driver problem.
    What is the make/model of your video card/chip?
    What is the installed video driver number and date?
    For the last issue, it could be many things, including the video driver. I'd look over this ARTICLE, and if there is nothing in the first part, then move on to tuning up the OS an computer in the second part. That would probably be a good time to post the full specs. of your computer, and also both your Project and Source footage. Finally, part three covers many troubleshooting tips, and furnishes many links.
    Good luck,

  • Please Help, Very Frustrated - iPhoto 11  & Canon Raw(.cr2) files

    I recently started shooting raw(.cr2) with Canon 6D (on the list), while on vacation of course.... while there I loaded all my images to my Ipad to save room, due to only having my 16gb memory card with me, yesterday I decided to take them off the ipad and store them in iPhoto where all my work is stored and back it up to my external harddrive,  I have tried for 4 hoursto figure out why it won't upload to iPhoto 11, nothing works, it acts as if its uploading and then after 30 mins it says unrecognizable format(see screen capture below).
    I have read several other different forums and similar questions all the way back to 2005 and nothing seems to help, I tried making a smart album, updating the software, but iPhoto will not recognize the pics.  I did find one forum that said use Image Capture and do it that way, It worked to move them off the ipad but only to my extrenal hard drive with no image preview, saying it cannot open the file, all I eally want to do is have them load like all my other images into iPhoto which I use almost everyday and not have to go back to shooting jpeg along...PLEASE HELP any suggestions??

    Thanks everyone...I tried and even downloaded the specific software released from Canon specific for Mac for my camera a Canon 6D... Nothing worked... IPhoto never would recognize the images.... 
    BUT .....  in case someone else has this problem... I had to jump through hoops to figure it out... but finally with the help of several forums on here... I figured out a way to save my images and have them in a jpeg format to save for my memory folder for my daughter....so I did figure out a way to make it work...
    If you transfer for images from camera(in raw format .cr2) to your ipad...... and cannot load them to iphoto like me....here is how to do it....
    1. I searched my Mac, it comes with a software installed called "Image Capture" find it and load your pictures on
              your ipad to a folder on your desktop for easy finding.
    2. Search Google and Download Program Called Rawker....
    3.  Open Rawker... go to File
                                  a.  Select Batch - Select source Location - Select your file you saved your images in
                                  b.  Select File Batch - Select Source Destination - either make a file on your desktop or
                                            select where you want your newly converted RAW/jpeg images to be placed
                                  c. Select File batch and Start Batch...
    4. After its done with the convert -  you can import that new .jpeg folder of images to your iphoto
    Bunch of crazy circles because I was told it was better to shoot in Raw .cr2 ... NOT ... It might be if you have the right program but I guess none of the ones I tried worked....
    Until I find a better way I will just go back to shooting in jpeg fine.
    Thanks again Everyone

  • Problems with iTunes, please help

    Hey:
    This is my problem... I just bought and iPod Nano and installed the iTunes software, and at the beginning it was working perfect, then my computer started doing weird stuff every time iTunes was on and it even got me the blue screen of death (I have a PC and my OS is Windows Vista Ultimate) so I had to restart my computer.
    After doing it, I cant open iTunes anymore. Each time I do I get first a message that says "iTunes has stopped working. Windows is looking for a solution to the problem.", after that I get a message that says "iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if any solution is available."
    Then I get a windows that says this:

    What happens if you try to start Quicktime? Does it work normally? I am guessing that it doesn't, but describe what happens with any error message in full.
    I am jumping the gun with the troubleshooting sequence here, but ...
    Have installed any of the following - ACE & K-Lite mega codecs package, QT alternative, Storm codec, also WinAVI video converter. These are know to cause problems with QUicktime and need to be uninstalled.
    ANyway I suggest you do a complete removal of iTunes and associated programs followed by a phased install of QUicktime then iTunes.
    Download a new copy of iTunes and the stand alone Quicktime installer:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Use the follwing method to remove the programs:
    XP
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93698
    Vista
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305409
    Install Quicktime and check if it works, then install iTunes.
    Does it work now?
    This has been based on the assumption that QUicktime doesn't work, if it is OK here is an iTunes troubleshooting link:

  • Huge problem with battery: PLEASE HELP!

    Please when you read this try to help, responses are appreciated.
    I have an iPod radio/clock/charger combo and for a while it has been working to charge and play. Just recently, as I disconnected the iPod to take it with me I noticed that as soon as I turned it on and the menu popped up the battery instantly drained and said "No battery remains. Please connect to iPod power source." So, I left it alone for about and hour and a half and tried again. This time the menu popped up and I could shuffle the songs but as soon as I pushed the next button it drained and I recived the message again. When I got home, I connected it to my computer and let it charge all night and the next day. I have been trying everyday but it seems as soon as I push two buttons it drains the battery. I have looked up topics and I get things like turning off the EQ, blacklight, and when not in use holding the play button. I do all of these things and I don't leave it in heat or extreme cold. Some of the topics suggested purchasing a new battery but the consequense of losing all playlists and songs is alarming to me. My iPod is completly full and I DO NOT want to add the all back. Yes, I have them backed up. It WILL play and charge on the docking station and the cord to the computer.
    Is there any other ways out there for me to fix this problem?
    Should I download the 7.1 version of iTunes?
    Is it because I use Limewire in addition to iTunes?
    Please help me, I will be needing my iPod soon on my NYC trip.
    Thank you!
      Windows XP  

    Step One: Did you try doing a RESET on the iPod to see if that helps?
    When connected to a power source, are you able to use the iPod, navigate the menus, play tunes?
    In the meantime, you might try the diagnostics menu on the iPod (while plugged in of course). I forget what is in that menu, but you do a reset and as the iPod starts up with the Apple logo screen, push and hold the center and left (back) buttons at the same time. It should dump you into a diagnostic menu and you can either run automatically through the tests or manually pick which tests.
    If you get stuck in any menu or test, you can always dump out by holding down the center and menu buttons again to do another reset.

  • Various Problems With N95 - Please Help!!

    Ok well I opened a new contract on the 2nd of June with Orange and got a Nokia N95.
    Since the 2nd of June, I have had a total of 5 different N95's because of all the problems I am having. Got the current one last sunday and these are the problems so far:-
    - Phone randomly turns off (only once or twice so far)
    - Take about 2 hours to send a text, or is says "unable to send text message")
    - My reception is full, then will automaticaly drop to zero bars
    - People try and ring me, it goes straight to my answer phone and then i get a text saying I have a missed call (happened twice)
    Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do? This is driving me crazy.
    I love the phone, but this is not what should be happening.
    Like I said, this is now the fifth Nokia N95 I have had!
    I'm not sure how I check which software I have, so if someone tells me where to look I will be able to tell you.
    Please help!
    Many thanks, Holly x

    Be patient calm down
    Like I said the updates are on MODEL NUMBER
    the Orange version will be a few weeks behind because they test every thing them selves They are paranoid about phones that run on their network In the good old days they had to aprove every phone on their network so if you had a sim free you had to ask them if you could use it Thay dont do that now but all the phones they sell for their network are supposed to be full tested to be working OK Thats why not all models and phones are not on Orange
    They dont seem so much bothered if the phone crashes but they dont want you to crash the network lol
    As soon as they have fully tested V12 it will be released for the updtae Orange have one or two mods to the basic software IE there own themes, screen savers, orange world, and the omission of voip. They also have ALS (line 2)
    I use Orange but since the early probs I manged to get the unbranded sim free for Orange. On my one ALS (line2 2 lines 2 numbers 1 sim card Business and personal) is working OK so there are only the screen savers and Orange world they need to test fully All I can say is just wait
    A service centre may get the update earlier or try looking in Orange shops at their current stock press *#0000# on their newer stock to see if they get V12 then the service centre will have it for repairing those ones and it will soon be on the update site

  • Problems with Restore, PLEASE HELP

    Well, I had an old old old ipod touch from Christmas 2007. Around that time, I dated a guy who wanted to try to jailbreak said iPod and basically messed it up to the point it wouldn't update anymore. So, with that and a broken home button, I got it replaced. It just came in the mail friday, and I've been having so many problems with the stupid thing I haven't even gotten to play with the new features I've been deprived of.
    First thing's first. When I first got it, I could put music on it and listen to it, but it wouldn't connect to wifi. So after a series of bad events (iTunes wouldn't connect to the internet, old version of iTunes, etc) I came to the conclusion that I should try to restore my iPod and see if that would help. Yeah. Bad idea. I got multiple error codes (6, 9, 1601, 1604, 2002) on every attempt. Tried two different computers, same conclusion. So I called Mr. Apple Expert and asked what I should do. He says call Best Buy and tell them they gave you a lemon (basically). So, as a last resort, I tried a different USB cable (I'm stubborn and thought that might be the problem), and I got somewhere. Not all the way.
    I'm stuck with a "Verifying iPod Restore" window on iTunes. It appears to be about 3/4 restored when you look at the iTouch screen. I am so incredibly frustrated now, and decided I might as well give this forum a try. I haven't been able to enjoy my iPod touch in forever (it was Valentine's Day of 2008 when my [now ex] boyfriend messed up a jailbreak) and just hoped someone could help.

    Well, I'm under a three year warranty with Best Buy, and since Mother and Father do not wish to spend anymore money, I'm just going to have to raise some **** when I call and see if the next one I get works.
    Honestly. I had a bad feeling about this iPod the moment I got it 3 days before Best Buy told me I would. I knew that too good to be true! I mean, the touch screen was kind of faulty when I was typing on it before it freaked out. The backspace wouldn't work. I believe you're right, I don't even think this is an iPod touch!
    But thank you sooo much for dealing with my n00b-ish-ness and trying to help me! I appreciate it.
