Can't retrieve voicemail with the 4.2 "update"

i've got the iphone 3g and updated to the ios 4.2 and now with this "update" i can't retrieve voicemails. i get a password prompt, but i never set up a password to retrieve voicemails.
does anyone have a solution? i'd like to avoid setting an appointment with the "genious bar" if i can.
also...apple, will you please provide an update that will give my phone the performance that it had prior to the 4.0 "update?" i just want my phone to work as good as it did prior to the 4.0 debacle.
thank you in advance

First, you are not addressing Apple here. This is a user to user technical support forum. If you want to let Apple know something, you use this feedback link. [www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html]
As far as the voicemail, it had to be setup the first time, maybe they took care of it for you at the carrier. I'm not sure where you are, however if you are on AT&T, they will reset your password for you, you can log in with that, and then reset the password to something that you would remember easily. The voicemail password doesn't always get deleted when updating, but sometimes it does. It didn't for my update, but it did for my son's.

Can anyone please help with the 2.3 update in UK?

Can anyone please help? I have an unbranded x10 in the UK. PC companion constantly tells me my phone software is up to date (with android 2.1) so I cannot upgrade to 2.3. I've tried all the tips on the SE support page like deleting the database content and looking for the setting to update the phone next time it's connected which doesn't exist (very informative SE!). I'm not keen on this independent software installation through the rapidshare download, it seems full of glitches looking at the forums. http://www.sonyericsson.com/update/?lc=en&cc=gb&pid=xperiax10 This link clearly tells us the update is available through PC companion, no joy for me though. Any help is welcome.

Have a look at this and check your version number see if its listed

As for generic roms you have probable read about custom roms
See this thread it is a stock SE rom not a custom rom and will give you just that a stock SE rom if you want

I can't right click with the new lion update. how can I fix it?

Before the Lion update I was able to right click and now I cant. It doesnt even give me the visual example when you get into the track pad set up page. just the 1 finger and the 3 finger opts. AND everytime i got to set up the two finger tap for right click, once i get out o that pane it doesnt work and whe i go back to the set up pane it is unclicked. Help!

Create a new user and log in as that user, and see if Safari works over there. If it does, then it's probably something in your local login environment related to Safari. If the other user also has trouble with Safari, then there's a more general problem with Safari.
Also check the console (Applications > Utilities > Console.app) when Safari tips over, and see if there's anything relevant logged there.

HT201436 Can't retrieve voicemail. Phone takes me to greeting screen, but when I select default or record a custom greeting, the save it, phone screen continues to show "saving greeting" I cannot get to the screen to check voicemail

I think phone is 4s but might be a 4. Can't retrieve voicemail. I've had the phone for months and have used voicemail. Now when I select voicemail the phone takes me to a page to set up greeting (custom or default) and when I select either one and then try to save it ( thinking maybe then I can get to my messages) the screen just keeps showing "saving greeting"
Thanks

Safe Mode (booting while holding down Shift key) should have disabled all the Login items, as well as any non-Apple startup items, including the launchd items.
I'm out of "Easy" ideas, and anything I say after this, is just wild ideas, so feel free to ignore me.
Have you tried different USB cables? Maybe there is an issue with the USB connector, or the way you have to bend things to access your Mac mini USB ports is different from accessing your Wife's Mac mini USB ports?
Try alternate USB ports. Maybe there is a bad/marginal port/connector.
Try removing all your existing USB devices. If you are using a USB keyboard and/or mouse, try using a different USB keyboard and/or mouse (maybe borrow them from your Wife's Mac mini). Basically remove all other USB devices and replace the essential keyboard and mouse with known good ones).
Desperate measure (Backup first before proceeding down this path). Using a Firewire cable, boot your Wife's Mac mini into Firewire Target Mode. Connect a Firewire cable between your Mac mini and your Wife's while your Wife's is in Target Mode. Now boot your Mac mini holding down the "Option" key, and select your Wife's Mac mini's disk to boot from. Essentially you will be using your hardware and your Wife's software to see if you have a hardware issue, or if it is a software issue. That is to say if it works with your Mac mini booted from your Wife's boot disk, then your hardware is fine, but there is something wrong with your software. If it does not work, then it is your hardware.
Hopefully, you Wife will not kill you for even mentioning this. ALSO, if you do try this, BACKUP, BACKUP, BACKUP first, especailly her system. Not that anything will go wrong, but if it does, the last thing you want is an annoyed Wife :-) BACKUP!

Cisco Unity: Can't retrieve voicemail from phone, but received email.

Hi,
Any help will be much appreciated. I've been trying to fix this issue for 3 of 280 voicemail users for a month now but of no success. I tried following solutions from this link (https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/1184794#1184794) also but of no success. When I'm trying to retrieve voicemail from the phone, it says, "Sorry, this system is temporarily unable to complete your call. Please call again later. Good bye."
I have Unity version = 4.0(3.0). From the Unity application event viewer, I can see these two errors after I tried to retrieve the voicemail.

I lost my iPod Nano. Can I retrieve all of the songs in my itunes library, or just the ones I purchased from the store?

I lost my iPod Nano. Can I retrieve all of the songs in my iTunes library, or just the ones I bought through the iTunes store?

The "bar" at the bottom does not say anything about all of your songs being on the iPod. It just shows you how much of its storage capacity is being used, based on what is on the iPod.
If you see "On This iPod," that means the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible. This is easier to describe with the sidebar visible, so from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
Select the iPod in the sidebar, under DEVICES. There is a bar of buttons near the top, starting with Summary. Click on Music next to Summary. This is the iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
Check the box for Sync Music. You can choose to sync Entire music library, if (?) your iTunes music library fits on the iPod. With this setting, your entire iTunes music library syncs to the iPod, and new songs get synced automatically. A 7th gen iPod nano is 16GB, so your iTunes music library would have to be less than 16GB (not counting non-music content on the iPod). Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Then, select (checkmark) the playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres you want on the iPod from the lists below. If you want newly added songs to sync to the iPod, they must be part of your selection. For example, you can add them to a playlist that you have selected for syncing to the iPod.
When you click Apply, the songs from your selection sync to the iPod. Going forward, changes to your iTunes library (based on your settings on the iPod's Music screen) sync automatically to the iPod, the next time it is connected (or when you click Sync).

You can not have both the CC & team in one account as it will only provide you added storage space of 120 GB but you can activate the CC any of them or either of them twice as CC is based on Adobe ID.

HT201335 Can i use airplay with the apple tv and airport express without an internet connection? Basically Set it up as a closed network?

I was told I could set a local network with the airport express, apple Tv, and my iPad to stream videos or pictures to a TV for a presentation.
No internet connection is available at the location.
Is that possible? Or do I need to access itunes homeshare with an internet connection to make this work?
I've set it up at home where I have an internet connection and it works fine but I want to move the setup to my church for a class. The data I'm using is stored on my ipad.
I know I can do this wired with the HDMI adapter but would like to do it wireless.
Thanks for any help!

Ok so we now have a solution to the problem. A friend of mine came round to work this out with me last night and we were able to get it working, but it is not as easy as I had hoped. Fisrtly we plugged the airport express into my router using the ethernet cable (for this I am using an Airport Express Base Station") and in airport utilities selected the airport express. In edit, we then gave the airport express a new range of IP address which did not conflict with any of the other applications that I have already assigned. We also named the Airport Express with a distinguishable name. We then waited for the changes to be registered then unplugged the Airport Express from the router. I then plugged my AppleTV via HDMI into a tv to test it and selected the new wifi network with the new Airport Express distinguishable name. I was able to watch a video that I have on my ipad directly on my tv without being connected to the internet, and was able to play Airplay presentations.
No the easiest solution, and certainly not something that anyone at Apple has talked me through in my lengthy conversations with them at Applecare.
Hope this helps.

I cannot answer regarding compatibility, but there is no download available for PSE6 if you would need one for this. You might be able to copy the installation files from a disk to some other removable media that the machine accepts. Upgrading to PSE7 would not be possible mainly because Adobe does not sell older versions of their software.
