Airport problem with iMAC 27" and serious service support for indonesia

Hi all,
i can't seem to get any help from anywhere else. so i try to post it here.
i tried to call the apple store (indonesia) which i bought this imac 27" from. got transfered 4 times and i had to explain it to them all over. in the end i got to speak to the technician and i asked whether i can get a replacement and they don't think it's the correct solution and leave me hanging here.
the apple store is listed as an apple authorized service provider (AASP) or apple authorized distributor (AAD):
iBox by Padang Digital Indonesia - Apple Authorised Service Provider
Puri Imperium Office Plaza, (Belakang Menara Imperium)
Jl. Kuningan Madya Kav. 5-6, Jakarta
12980
Tel: 62 21 8370-iBox (4269); 830 6763
Fax: 62 21 830 6730
Email: [email protected]
Web: http://www.ibox.co.id
i called the apple support on the apple.com (0018 03061 2009 for indonesia) today wednesday 19 may 2010, time 1:12pm indonesia local time (GMT +7) i didn't get the guy's name but i can tell he's Indian from the accent, i told him what the problem is, he told me to wait, i waited for 10 minutes and he hung up on me at 1:24pm. please check on the record, because i was told the whole conversation was recorded.
so, let's go to the problem:
i can't share my internet with airport built-in in my imac 27".
I'm using ZTE usb hsdpa modem connected to the imac. (fyi, my friend is using the same exact modem and internet provider and don't have any problems with internet sharing using his macbook)
i tried to share the internet through the airport express simply with these steps:
1. open the system preferences, internet sharing,
2. connection with "ZTE usb modem", and the box next to "Airport" is ticked
3. turn on the internet sharing
4. press start
5. yes the firewall is off.
and these are what i'm having right now:
1. the airport symbol wont turn into an arrow
2. when i open the network preferences, it says: AirPort is turned on but is not connected to a network. (color is orange not green)
3. i searched the wireless network with my ipod touch and i found nothing
4. if i try to "create a network" here's what it says "There was an error creating your computer-to-computer network."
5. this are the details on the airport card:
Software Versions:
Menu Extra: 6.2 (620.24)
configd plug-in: 6.2 (620.15.1)
System Profiler: 6.0 (600.9)
Network Preference: 6.2 (620.24)
AirPort Utility: 5.5.1 (551.19)

Interfaces:

Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x168C, 0x8F)
Firmware Version: Atheros 9280: 2.1.9.5
Locale: RoW

Supported PHY Modes: 802.11 a/b/g/n
Supported Channels: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 100, 104, 108, 112, 116, 120, 124, 128, 132, 136, 140, 149, 153, 157, 161, 165
Wake On Wireless: Supported
Status: Not Associated
and yes, i've updated all the airport software and i stick on the 10.6.2 os.
It seems like people who has this latest imac 27" also having problems with the airport express. and they somehow got a replacement.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2261196&tstart=0&messageID=109 80828
so, i really really appreciate if i can get help here.
many thanks and best regards,
irene

If you have anything configured in System Preferences/Network/Airport then you have conflicts configured into the network. I suggest that you start from the beginning. Do not assume anything. Do not take any short cuts. Start fresh.
Go to Sys Prefs/Sharing turn off Internet Sharing. Go to Sys Prefs/Network, highlight AirPort and press the - symbol below to remove the AirPort interface. Now press the + symbol and create a new AirPort Interface. In the new AirPort interface do not turn on AirPort. You should only select the box to show AirPort Status in the menu bar. Now press Apply.
Go to Sys Prefs/Sharing and follow the steps 1 through 11 in my first post.
In step 11 Sys Prefs should ask you to turn on AirPort. Turn it on. It should next ask you to start Internet Sharing. Start Internet Sharing.
The AirPort Status in the menu bar should show AirPort is on and have an arrow pointing up. In the AirPort Status dropdown menu it should show AirPort is ON, Internet Sharing is ON and it should show the name of the Internet Sharing network that you created.

Problems with Sky Broadband and Talk services in Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire | 05 August 2015

If you live in Alfreton, Clay Cross North Carlton, Tickhill, Whitwell or Worksop we know you're having problems getting online and with making calls this evening.
The problem has been caused by a break in fibre cables near to Chesterfield town centre.
We're working with the local authorities to gain access to the site of the fault.
The latest news we have is that repair work is likely to start late this evening once access has been granted and it could carry on overnight tonight. We'll provide our next this update if we receive any news this evening.
Calls to emergency services are unaffected.
We're sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Second of all, how do I go about this? I don't have a phone and I'm not calling on my mobile with those extortionate charges to be on hold for hours and for Sky to try and "resell" their services etc.
You can cancel your broadband and talk services and keep Sky TV but if you do this and don't have another provider lined up then you will be without both.
Calls to Sky are charged at local rate so if you have free minutes on your mobile with your network operator then calls to Sky are free as they would use these free minutes. Sky will only accept a cancellation by speaking the the account holder.

Problems with iMac G5 and LaCie external drives

I have an early iMac G5 (without iSight), running OS 10.5.2. I've had a 250GB LaCie external hard drive for about a year now, and it worked fine up until a couple weeks ago, when I got this message:
Disk Repair
The disk "External HD" was not repairable by this computer. It is being made available to you with limited functionality. You must back up your data and reformat the disk as soon as possible."
I was unable to save anything to the drive after this, including altering files already on the drive. Long story short, I bought another LaCie drive, because I needed more space anyway. I got the 500 GB model, moved everything onto it, erased the old drive, and then I had two working drives. I've since only been using the new drive, but just a few days later, I got the same message again, and am having the same problem, but this time for the new drive. I'm not a computer-savvy person, so I have no idea what could be causing this. This happened not long after updating to OS 10.5 from 10.4 - I'm not sure if this could be related. Can anyone help?

One thing to look out for is the power source. If you have a huge octopus of power cords plugged into one outlet, the drive may not be getting enough power to operate properly. That would explain why the same thing happened on two separate drives, both recently. You may have added something new to the +power strip+ that is overtaxing the available power draw.
Someone I know had this issue. It never occurred to him or me to consider this possibility. His external drive was regularly getting disk directory errors. I initially thought the drive was going bad, but once we distributed the power cords to two power strips connected to different outlets, the problem did not recur.
Your problem may be something else, but it sounded too familiar to not mention my experience with the power cord octopus monster.

While I don't have a newer iMac, run Windows or use PhotoShop... but I'd say that you need more than the stock 4GB of RAM to get fully up to speed.

I suggest adding 2 x 4GB modules to the existing 2 x 2GB modules and bring it up to 12GB, cause if you only upgrade to 8GB by adding 2 x 2GB and 8GB is not enough or you want more later, then that upgrade is a waste.

Problems with Gmail IMAP and 'use this Mailbox for..'

Basically trying to re-setup Mail for Gmail IMAP after having to Time Machine back to a previous date after something or other stopped it working. Only thing that remains wrong is the Mail Trash. I have remapped the Drafts and Sent folders correctly, however the trash does not appear.
I am using the Gmail Labs feature that lets you show or hide any of Gmails folders.
If I try and delete a message it doesn't seem to go anywhere - if I delete it again it does dissapear (but I don't know where to!). If I force the Trash to appear in the sidebar (command 5) the little circular progress thing appears when i do the delete, but clicking on the Trash can shows no contents.
Should I 'show' Gmail's Bin and set that for the Trash in Mail?
I've obviously done something wrong here remapping or whatever so can anyone help me to sort it out? Please!

No ideas?

Airport Express problem with iMac G5 iSight - help needed!

I bought an Airport Express (AX) last week, upgraded my OS to Leopard and installed Airport Utility fine. I could join my existing wireless network and everything worked fine for streaming itunes through my stereo. But this week Airport Utility has stopped being able to find the AX and I can't work out why - really need some help! Its in the same place as last week, close to the computer, and I tried another location right next to the Imac but didn't work. When I restore factory settings Airport Utility does recognise the device, and allows me to update settings for wirelessly connecting to my existing wireless network, so the light on the AX is solid green. But then AU again says it cannot find any AX wireless device. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong???

Hi I'm still battling with this - have connected the AX to my Imac via ethernet and it shows up fine in Airport Utility. Status light is green and it says its set up to connect to my existing wireless network using wireless connection. Security in Network Preferences is the same for both: WPA2 Personal.
So I don't think there's a problem with the AX, and my current wireless network (BT Home Hub) is working fine.
And when I restore factory settings Airport Utility can see the AX before updating settings so the wireless side of AX must work too.
I'm figuring it must be something about the settings that mean AU can't see it anymore. But I can't work out what, since security is the same.
Any ideas would be great!

Problem with sales order and Service order

Dear Guru's
We have a real problem with sales orders and service orders and how we treat these. For a project that uses a WBS, it's not a problem to manipulate SAP to give us a list of shortages (orders with no or limited supply) for each order, but for some reason our after sales orders and our service orders do not work this way.
Thanks and Regards,
Deethya.

Problems with iMac retina 5K (artifacts, glitches and etc.)

Hello dear Apple.
I have bought new iMac with retina 5K display and I have found lot of problem with it. It was December 2014 when I got my first iMac. And after then I have found few real problems with it.
The first problem is I can't open high resolution image with standard Preview.app. I mean 'high resolution' - more then 30-40 megapixels. When I open them, I can see image, but only 2-3 seconds, and after that I see horizontal artifacts only. I can't open images, like this Rembrandt.jpg; Carpaccio.jpg; Holbein.jpg
The second problem, when I change resolution in to scaled mode (System Preferences/Display) for increase image on display. I found when select some area on background of desktop it has left some lines after itself. It is particularly unpleasant if you have plain colour desktop background. You can view, how does it look here.
The next problem with animation in different parts of interface, e.g. sometimes when I open Time Machine some parts of windows are freezing or appear some artifacts or glitches near borders of window. And I have the same situation, when I open Mission Control, or any Adobe app or other, or simply rename a files. I have found few discussions with problems like mine, but in the separate places
5K iMac - bad GPUs?
Graphic Problems with Retina iMac
iMac 5K and indesign glitch
And after that I want to tell you that I have this problems on four (4) iMacs. It was really difficult to arrange four replace. I have lost a lot of time an spent a lot of nerves for discuss and resolve my problems with Apple support. Finally, they told me that they do not know about problems with iMacs, and they could offer give my money back. I glad to get my funds, but now in my country price for iMacs has doubled. And if they refund my money, I can buy half new iMac only.
I am sorry for my language and style, but I do not know what I should doing with that. And should I hope, that my problem resolve with OS X updates? Or it is hardware problem of the whole iMacs 5K...

Yes Ralph, absolutely correct, 4 times. Do you have the graphic card the same as me, or m290? Could I ask you check your iMac for few things, please?
For the first, can you enlarge scale in System preference/Display and install plain dark color desktop background. Are there any footprints after rectangular selection like in my video https://youtu.be/dBglFvjJx1Q?
And for the second, could you download this image https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/07/Rembrandt_Harmensz._van_Rijn _-_Nachtwacht_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg and open in plain Preview.app, and zoom it? Are there any glitches?
Thank forward.

I have a problem with my motherboard and my battery of my 2010 macbook pro 13". It was just serviced with a new screen, keyboard, and logic board.

I have a problem with my motherboard and my battery of my 2010 macbook pro 13". It was just serviced with a new screen, keyboard, and logic board. How much will a new battery and motherboard cost and would it be worth it or should I just get a new computer. It was about 300 dollars to get it serviced last week. if it adds up to much past 600 dollars I will just get a new one. THANKS FOR ANY HELP!
P.S During classes today it began beeping in my bag. Like three kind of long steady beeps then a short pause, and when I opened it I couldn't see anything but it was on so I turned it off and back on.

Depends on what options your Apple store offers - if they can do a depot repair (where they send it out), that's around $300 for all parts & labor.
If the store doesn't have that option, a logicboard is around $600, battery $80-$100, from what I've seen.
If they JUST replaced the logicboard, you absolutely should NOT have to pay for another replacement - the replacement is covered by a warranty. If they want you to pay for it, make sure you have a copy of the receipt for the work that was recently completed so you can show it to them. They have no reason to charge you for another logicboard.

I have a problem with Imac mid 2010 graphics card (ATI Radeon 5670 512MB)

I have a problem with Imac mid 2010 graphics card (ATI Radeon 5670 512MB). When I play video formats like xvid, mkv, avi iMac freezes and emits horrible sound,in service said the problem is not overheating. Not a problem with memory or hard disk because I placed second correct parts.The same problem is with OSX 10.6.8 and 10.8.4 and other players.Apple hardware test found no problem and tech tool pro found no fault.
After five days of testing in the service they can not found fault and it was decided to change the graphics card.
New graphics have been tested for two days but it is not reproduced divx ... but their test software which did not find any fault on the old graphics...
Do I have the right to complain if repair does not fix the problem because I use non apple softwere and video formats.

You could look at the System Profile for the info it presents for the card. But why wouldn't you think it's not up to date if you have the latest install (according to your sig above)?
What program are you trying to run? Is there anything in the system log?
I think it's the program that's having the problem and not anything with your video software.

Error: There is a problem with the file and it cannot be copied

I've been trying to copy (and essentially move) the contents of an NTFS-formatted external HDD to my iMac's internal HDD so I can then format the external HDD to Mac OS Extended. However, when I simply try to drag and drop, I get an error during the transfer that states:
There is a problem with the file and it cannot be copied.
I tried a basic cp command in Terminal to copy all contents of the external HDD to a folder on my iMac's desktop, and found that while there were no errors, there were many individual files missing full chunks of data (ie. original file would be 4GB on my external HDD, but only 350MB on my desktop).
Any ideas on how I can successfully copy a large amount of data (approx. 170GB) from my external HDD to my internal HDD while avoiding this error, so I can ultimately format my external HDD to Mac OS Extended? ANY help is greatly appreciated.

That's not a good error to see. It indicates something is very wrong. Pulled out of an old programming header file:
ioErr = -36, /*I/O error (bummers)*/
If Apple labelled it "bummers," they had a good reason! Unfortunately, that doesn't bode well for you.
Try running Disk Utility again. Keep repairing over and over until one of two things happens: 1) Disk Utility says no repair was needed, or 2) Disk Utility reports the same error in two sequential repair sessions and is unable to repair it both times.
If you hit the second case, or if you hit the first but still can't copy files, then you've got two basic options:
= Buy a third-party disk utility or two and try them. Try TechTool as a first choice.
= Recover what files you can and write the rest off as gone.
= Send your drive to a data recovery service and hope they can extract more than you can.
Of course, none of this is necessary if you have a backup of the contents of that hard drive. (If you don't, this is your learning experience. Once bitten, twice shy, so they say.) Also, regardless of the outcome, once you've got your data or have decided it's gone, you're going to want to wipe that drive completely clean. Reformat the drive with Disk Utility, then when it's done, select the drive in Disk Utility and hit command-i. (Don't select the new volume you just created on that drive, select the drive itself. Mine looks like "232.9 GB Hitachi ..." with the volume name indented underneath.) Look for an item that says S.M.A.R.T. Status, and if it doesn't say Verified, you might as well throw out the drive. Don't trust any more data to it.
If all appears safe, you can start moving data back onto it. But, as always, make sure you have a backup of everything!

Problems with .ARW files and auto toning

problems with .ARW files and auto toning
let me try to explain this because this has happened in past and never found a way to resolve but i lived with it
now that I have a Sony A7R the problem is more serious
Firstly i take pride it making the picture happen all in camera, i use DRO lvl 5 to get enough light, like when i'm shooting at dusk. DRO its like doing HDR but in a single file, it lightens the darks. in my camera i'm happy with results
but when I upload them to lightroom, they come out near black.
allow me to explain
lets say I import 100 images
i double check my preferences and everything is UNCHECKED when it comes to importing options, there is no auto toning, nothing.
as the images import i see a preview in the thumbnail which looks fine.
i double click on one to enlarge it, hence leave grid view.
for a brief 1 or 2 seconds, i see the full image in all its glory but than lightroom does something funny, it darkens the image
one by one as it inspects each image, if it was a DRO image it makes it too dark.
to make this clear, the image is perfect as it was in the beginning but after a few seconds lightroom for some reason thinks it needs to correct it.
how to prevent lightroom from doing this, i want the image exactly as it is, why must lightroom apply a correction>?
i think it has to do something with interpreting the raw file and lightroom applies its own algorithm.
but here is what i dont get.....before lightroom makes the change i'm able to witness the picture exactly as it was taken and want it unchanged..
now i have to tweak each file or find a profile for it which is added work.
any ideas how to prevent lightroom from ruining my images and just leave them as they were when first detected...
there are 2 phases...one is when it originally imports and they look fine
second is scanning each image and applying some kind of toning which darkens it too much.
thanks for the help

sorry thats the auto reply message from yahoo email.
i've disabled it now
thing is, there is no DRO jpg to download from the camera
its only ARW. so my understanding is when i use DRO setting, the camera makes changes to the ARW than lightroom somehow reads this from the ARW.
but then sadly reverts it to no DRO settings.
because i notice if i take normal picture in raw mode its dark but if i apply dro to it, it comes out brighter, yet when i d/l the image from camera to lightroom, which is an ARW - there are no jpgs. lightroom decides to mess it up
so in reality there is no point in using DRO because when i upload it lightroom removes it.
is there a way to tell lightroom to preserve the jpg preview as it first sees it.
its just lame, picture appears perfect...than lightroom does something, than bam, its ruined,.
what do i need to do to prevent lightroom from ruining the image? if it was good in the first place.

Why is Apple so bad at providing customers with information on what the problem with email is and what they are doing to fix it?

Why is apple not providing information on what the problem withe email is and what they are doing to fix, along with a time frame for fixing the problem.

It was because the problem was major. If you do not know tech, you should know that a two day outage usually indicates some type of virus, hack, or a bad software load that they had to unravel. The common way to solve that is to rebuild servers and put back into service. That takes time.
Apple did not want to admit this problem. My guess at this stange was that they loaded new software that might be associated with the new IOS and it crashed. To reveal this would be to cast into doubt their future revenue.
Either way. Run do not walk away from Icloud products and services. Apple has demonstrated they can not be a business partner.
