Help please! Broadband & TV upgrade

Hey all!
I was just wondering, I live in a flat above a family business (bar & restuarant). My Grandmother already has a type of BT internet fitted but it's not BT Infinity.
The signal I get in my living room & in other places around the flat has a very weak signal which does not stay connected all the time. My Grandmother recently wanted to upgrade to BT Infinity (& the tv upgrade) for my sake so I am able to get my work done online without any interruption from the connection, BUT because when she first got everything installed under the business they are trying to charge her quite a bit more money ontop of her orignal contract even though my Grandmother is only wanting to get the package deal for me in the flat for my benefit..
What I am wanting to find out, is there a way I am able to get everything converted for the flat use rather than the businesses use thats not going to stress & confuse my Grandmother anymore than she already is with all this 'high tech' stuff as she would say. Thanks a million for your time, hope to hear some good news !
Regards,
J.Nelson

As its Business broadband, then you cannot add BT Vision to it anyway. As its part of the family business, then it would have to stay as a business line.
You would be better getting your own Residential Broadband line installed
If you just want a stronger signal, then you can buy things to boost the wireless signal.

Help please - Broadband not activated

Hi
I've just moved to BT from another broadband provider. My broadband was due to be activated last Friday (28th Feb) but apparently there has been a "delay" with the order. Now that I've been on these boards I can see that it's not just me (I wish I'd seen this first as I would have thought twice about moving to BT). I see that BT has taken the money from my account, and yet I am not receiving their service. I can't use the BT wifi hotspots where I am as I live in the sticks with no hotspots or mobile coverage. Luckily my old broadband provider is still providing me with broadband, but this means I'm payiing both BT and my old broadband provider while BT gets its act together.
I've navigated BT's annoying phone system every day since Friday which just basically culminates in a recorded message saying, "there's a delay and we're sorting it out". No estimated date for completion, and no chance to speak to a human being. Why does BT think it's acceptable to take my money and not give me a date for completion? If I treated my customers like that they would vote with their feet and go elsewhere (and rightly so!).
BT - please can you put me in touch with someone who can give me a completion date - and by that I mean a proper date, and not the standard patter that seems to have been fed to many others on these boards. I (like others on here) am a brand new broadband customer, and the lack of customer service and information I have received so far is not filling me with confidence and is very poor, particularly as you already have my money and I am effectively paying for broadband twice at the moment.

Just something to point out - this forum is customer to customer. Though the moderators do work for BT (Customer Care team, if I've read things right).
Since your old provider is still supplying the line, BT Retail will be unable to take ownership - therefore should not be billing you. BT Wholesale can forcibly remove a line from a retailler, and re-assign to another retailler, but in your case, doing so would leave you without broadband.
For the BT Wifi issues, you should be able to login using your BT ID (email address & password you signed up for). If you're having difficulties, probably best to call BT to get advice.
My advice for beating the voice recognition system, when prompted for who you want to talk to or what about etc, simply say "Order Management" - that'll then prompt you for the phone number you want to discuss with BT. At this point, press #. It'll ask you again, press # again. The automatic system will then give up, and drop you in a queue - hopefully to the Order Management team (I've had mixed success getting straight to them). At most, I've spent 10mins on hold.
EDIT: Oh, and if you get to talk to someone with a Scottish accent, hang on to them!! They are very apologetic, and actually give information out to customers. I just wish they could progress orders more - other than that, can't fault the Scottish call centre.
My first activation date was 3rd Feb. Then 27th Feb. Then today, 4th March. I'm still not active, BT have communicated the basic reasoning, but will always pass the buck to OpenReach since it's their responsibility to do the work. And the customer is allowed no direct interation with OpenReach.
Good luck!

Since i upgraded my iphone 4s to iOS 6.0, i can no longer watch or view my Movies or Video's in my Music Playlist. I can still view them in my Videos which is not in orderly manner or arragement like i wanted unlike in the Playlist. There is some sort of restrictions i guess. I already checked the Allow All Movies but still the videos does'nt appear. What should I do?
Please HELP ME.
Thank you very much.

Similar problem here. My Ical refuses to edit or delete events. Viewing is possible, though sometimes the whole screen turns grey. Adding new events from mail is still possible. The task-pane completely disappeared. My local apple technic-centre messed about with disk utility for a bit and than told me to reinstall leopard. I could of course do that, but it seems to me that reinstalling Leopard just to fix iCal events is a bit invasive.
I tried also tried removing everything, installing a new copy of iCal from the leopard-cd, software updates, all to no avail.
At the moment I'm open to all suggestions that do not include a complete leopard reinstall.

Try holding down CTRL as you launch iTunes to see if it will repair the drivers.
Or try Cerbu's post here.
Or see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, forcing a driver update.
Please let us know which approach works for you...

HELP PLEASE!! Hard drive upgrade problem

Hi everyone. I under the direction of others bought an 60GB Powerbook Hard Drive 5400RPM HItachi upgrade from powerbookmedic.com. I bought my powerbook in early 2001 and when I took it apart and proceeded to load in the new hard drive I noticed that the new one did not have connector pins to hook up to the flex cable on the hard drive. Now am I am I missing something here or am I just a moron? I am really frustrated because the model I bought says that it fits with all Powerbook Titanium models. What am I missing? Help please!!!!!!!!!

Hi, Denny.
...and when I took it apart and proceeded to
load in the new hard drive I noticed that the new one
did not have connector pins to hook up to the flex
cable on the hard drive.
So you removed the old drive, you detached the short flex cable from it, and now you find nothing on the new drive to connect the cable to? Am I understanding correctly?
If so, is it possible that the connector on the new drive is covered with some sort of temporary shield to protect it during packing, shipping and handling? If it is, the shield should come off if you pull it in the same direction you pulled the flex cable to detach it from your old drive.
I'm tempted to say you are surely missing something. For Hitachi to have shipped a drive that has no cable connector seems about as likely as for Toyota to have shipped a car with no tires installed, but I suppose anything is (barely) possible.

My MacBook Pro encounters an error when partitioning for loading windows using Bootcamp Assistant. I deleted the partition that was there in order to upgrade to Bootcamp 5 but now I am struggling to get Bootcamp 5 to complete the job. Help please.

I am struggling to Partition my MacBook Pro using Bootcamp 5, can someone help, please. I previously had successfully loaded Windows 7 running Bootcamp 4 on the same machine. When I upgraded to Windows 8 I started encountering problems. My trackpad would not work and it required me to load Bootcamp 5" as I was running 32 bit this is not supported by Bootcamp 5 I had to completely delete the previous partition, but now I can't repartition as it goes halfway and says an error has been encountered and Bootcamp cannot partition this drive.
I do not know how to defragment the drive in Apple as I can in windows nor can I clean it up to maybe get everything in neat clusters, maybe somebody can help me solve this problem.

Sorry Bobthefisherman, this was not helpful. I had already gone through these pages before coming to you. What I have discovered however is that when Bootcamp Assistant deleted the partition, it did not create a single volume but created three partitions instead which maybe the reason why it cannot create the new part ion parameters I am asking it crate. So I took it to the geniuses at Apple who suggested that I reformat the drive and reload everything again! and this might solve the problem. We'll all know whether this is helpful once it finishes the formatting of the hard drive. This process is taking a very long time to complete so I am leaving it overnight for it to complete. I will keep you updated on progress. I am also told that Apple is struggling with Windows 8 drivers and I may not be able to use that, so I am going back to Windows 7 even though I was beginning to like windows 8 very much.

Do you get this window when you hold down the Command+Option keys and launch iPhoto?
If not then you're not holding down both keys long enough.

Please help. I recently upgraded to IOS 8.2 and i realised
that all my downloaded videos from itunes have somewhat vanished. I see the
cloud sign with the downward arrow. However they won’t play, i am being
required to DOWNLOAD them again. This is both in my iPhone and Ipad. Is there
any other way to go around this? As I do not want to download a second time,
that would cost me more money.

Hello ogojohn,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
The icon indicates an item that is available for download. This is usually because it has been downloaded previously by the account you are logged in under and will not be charge again for the download. See the following article, while it references iTunes for Mac and not iOS, it is the same.
