HT204407 Why doesn't the "notify me" portion of Find Friends app work?

The "notify me" part of the find friends app still doesn't work.

Hello,
I'm sorry if it wasn't clear... but I don't have ram issues with the Kingston type...
I used the new Kinsgtons in my macbook and wanted to take the originals from the macbook (Samsung) and them put in my iMac next to the other modules that were already in the iMac.
I know it's a bit confusing... ;-)
So... I have 2 x 4gb in my iMac from a brand I can't remember the name off... And I also wanted to put in 2 x 2 GB Samsung modules. So that would count up to 12 GB ram. Why? Because I took the Samsung modules out of my macbook and I thought I could reuse them in my iMac since they have the same specifications (1333MHz DDR3). But My iMac won't start up as soon as I insert those 2 Samsung modules.

Notify Me function in Find Friends app

Has anyone been able to get the "Notify Me" feature to work in the Find Friends app? I believe I've made all the appropriate adjustments in Settings as well as the app itself. However, when the friend arrives at the destination I selected, the app does nothing other than unselect the "Notify Me" button. No alerts or notifications appear anywhere.

Joe:
Thanks for the reply but please understand that the article doesn't address my question at all (nor does it really provide any details on settings, etc.) For the record, here is what I've set up:
I am properly logged in with my iCloud and I am able to the current location of the friend that I am following. This gets updated every 30 seconds or so. So that part works.
In the iPhone settings area under "Find Friends" have selected "Allow Notifications", 5 notifications in "Notification Center" and "Sounds", "Badge App Icon", and "Show on Lock Screen" are all enabled.
In "Find Friends", once I see the map with the friend's location, I click on the "Notify Me" button which then asks if I want to notified when the friend leaves or arrives at a given location. That in turn takes me back to the map screen where I see the "Notify Me" button. Doesn't matter what option I choose (i.e., where leaves or arrive)--nothing happens.
Therein lies the problem.
Am I supposed to have the Find Friends open all the time or is the notification also supposed to work in the background. I have tried both approaches and neither yields any kind of notification.
Hope this helps.

Using the notify me in new find friends

I am using the notify me aoption to let me know when my child leave a location. I do get a notification, but the notification says I have left the location not my child. Is this a bug, or is there something I am missing?
I am sorry if this is in the wrong community, but it is the closest I could find to my question.
Thanks,
Chsir Boston

UPDATE: To recap - boyfriend and I are on iphone 4s, both are updated to iOS6, I was having problems on my phone with the Notify Me button not working (being greyed out) on his Find Friends screen. So we went into our account settings in Find Friends (Me>Account) and when we scrolled down there is something that says: Show Geofence Alerts From: Mine was on Only my Friends, his was on Everyone. I had NEVER changed this setting (I used to have no problem getting alerts for him) so I really didn't think this would work. I switched mine to Everyone, checked his screen, and the Notify Me button was available. To experiment I switched it BACK to Only My Friends and it stayed lit up. In conclusion - that really shouldn't have affected anything especially considering that it made no difference when I switched it back, but somehow it magically fixed it. So as long as everything else is correct (both phones updated to iOS6, etc.) then you might want to try this. Hope it helps.

HT204407 Will Find Friends app work with multiple phones on one Apple ID?

My family has one apple ID and multiple devices on that account. Is it possible for my wife and I to use Find Friends this way or does she need another apple ID? When I put the app on her phone, it thinks it is me. We want to use the app to locate one another.

Use "find my iphone" for one apple id and "find my friends" for multiple id's.

Why doesn't the new ram memory for iMac (mid 2011) work (different brand)?

Hello,
I have an Macbook pro at home (early 2011) and an iMac (mid 2011).
My macbook pro had 2 x 2GB ram and I wanted it to be higher, zo I bought 2 x 4GB ram from Kingston. I installed it succesfully in the macbook pro.
I saw that the ram in my macbook and iMac where the same type (1333MHz DDR3), so I figured the Ram-modules were interchangable. The iMac has 2 x 4GB ram put in by Apple itself. It's a weird brand name, something Asian that I hadn't heard off.
I thought I could put the original ones from my macbook pro (brand Samsung) in with the original ones that where already in the iMac.
So the slots would look like:
4GB 4GB -> already in iMac, original modules with brand name I can't remember ;-).
2GB 2GB -> original modules from macbook pro Samsung
I also put in in like shown: the same types next to eachother.
Then I turned my iMac on and it only "beeped".
So I tried to put it in different combinations (4GB next to 2GB etc etc). But it still "beeped".
Very frustrating... because I thought I was doing a good thing by buying Kingston (quite expensive also...).
Now I think I had better purchased new 2 x 4GB Samsung and combined that with the 2 x 2GB Samsung from the macbook and put it all in the iMac. And take those of the iMac (2 x 4GB Asian brand) and put those in the macbook... This way it were all the same brands combined...
But I did by Kingston... so... why can't I combine the original iMac ram modules with the Samung modules from the macbook????? I've read that in older iMac models, the slots are sensitive for different brands, but couldn't find out for sure for my iMac (mid 2011). It's a bit stupid, no... Both mac's are from 2011 and have the same specifications...
Could anyone give me an answer?
A little bit mad at Mac right now ;-).
Thanks in advance!
Wallking.
PS: if it is about the OSX I'm using... can't update to Maverick for software licence reasons... I need the iMac for work a lot...

Why doesn't the version of Notepad that comes with Java work?

Something is wrong with the version of Notepad that comes with the j2sdk1.4.2. When I click on my desktop icon I get "Java Webstart Application Manager". I highlight "Notepad App" and continue. Notepad opens up I type in my code. Then I click on "Save" and choose my Java folder to save the file. Now at the bottom it says "Files of type... and it seems to me I should be able to save the file as type Java. But all it says is "all files." When I look in my Java folder the file is there but it just says type "file". Isn't it supposed to be saved as a "Java" file?
And I still can't invoke the compiler at the command line nor run my program. But I'm going to try it again.

A java file is a test file with a .java extension. There is nothing special about it.
If you want an editor try eclipse, this edits,compiles,runs,debugs, refactors and much more.

Why doesn't the iPad have a guest screen like the PC for extra security?

I just want to start off first by saying I just purchased my iPad about six months ago and I'm really enjoying it,but if you're like me,I believe in protecting my privacy.
I don't like to turn down any of friends or coworkers when I'm asked to use my iPad,but when you have such things as your personal pictures,movies,music,business documents,etc...you'd like to keep them from prying eyes. I thought that with the new iOS 7 update,that issue would've been fixed, but I was wrong. I'm hoping Apple would correct this problem with the next iOS update,it would make a lot of loyal Apple consumers & anyone who's new to purchasing the iPad for the first time very happy to know that feature is available.
Why doesn't the iPad offer a guest screen?

Why doesn't the CC app work properly?

I've been using Creative Cloud for some time now and am really loving it, however I must say it is a source of annoyance that the Creative Cloud app just doesn't work properly.
Firstly, I used it initially to download all my apps, then after an update those apps no longer appeared in the "Apps" list. Now only those that have been installed since that update appear in this list. Why doesn't the "Apps" list display all of the Adobe CC apps that I have installed on my computer?
Why does it keep reinstalling fonts? I'm always getting "Lush Script Regular" and other fonts being added.
It regularly comes up telling me that Dreamweaver and Premiere Pro need to be updated, but always I get an error, then the update request disappears.
I'm regularly getting 4 files that it can't sync - even though they are the same files as others in the folder. If nothing else, why can't I say "Great, got the message". Also, why is the error message just "due to server error" with no advice on how to resolve it? Why is there a server error on only these 4 files?
It seems to me there are still some teething issues with the CC app, but what I don't understand is why they aren't being resolved much faster, given that this is the portal to the service.
Of course, given Adobe I doubt I'll get satisfactory answers – a little jaded with their responses. Anyway, thought I'd at least post the questions.

Questapo I am sorry you have been facing difficulties with your Creative Cloud experience. I don't believe it will be possible to address all of your concerns in one discussion. I would not be surprised if at least three of the issues are related to the same root cause.
First in order for the applications to be visible are you regularly needing to delete the OPM.db file? You can find this listed as solution 2 in CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html.

Why Doesn't the XIRR function work?

In Excel if you have 5 records from a1:b5 then XIRR looks like this:
XIRR(A1:A5, B1:B5) you get a nice neat answer like .35
Here is a version that works in Crystal that would require manual entry of any new quarters numbers and dates-- and if you plug this into Crystal it works:
(XIRR([1000000,-100000,-100000,-100000,-100000,10277.49,-100000], [DateValue(1999,2,1),DateValue(1999,3,1),DateValue(1999,6,1), DateValue(1999,12,1),DateValue(2000,3,1),DateValue(2000,6,1),DateValue(2000,9,1)]))*.100
You do get a nice answer of something like .035. But this is all done manually and I need it to function automatically when the report is refreshed.
So you have a range for the currency and a range for the date fields. I need to simulate this in crystal. Crystal has an XIRR function, and with the arrays, I should be able to fill in the range, but am having difficulty getting it to work.
After building the arrays, I made another formula to combine the arrays in the XIRR formula.
I am down to this error now after getting this formula this far --
"Numerical method did not converge; try another value for guess."
Here's where I am with the formula, although they don't want to use the guess part of the XIRR function - they just want to use the XIRR(number/currency, date). Maybe you could pass this on too?:
/{@Reset} for the group header (NOT using a repeated group header):
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar array x := 0;
datevar array y := date(0,0,0);
numbervar i := 0;
numbervar j := 0;
//{@accum} for the detail section:
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar array x;
datevar array y;
numbervar i := i + 1;
numbervar j := count({table.groupfield},{table.groupfield});
if i <= j then (
redim preserve x[j];
redim preserve y[j];
x<i> := tonumber({table.currency});
y<i> := datevalue({table.datetime})
//{@xirr calc} to be placed in the group footer:
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar array x;
datevar array y;
xirr(x,y)
The array works correctly. So why do I get that error and why doesn't the XIRR formula work like they say it should? Has anyone used this successfully in Crystal--maybe you could shed some light?
Thanks!

Hi,
I am receiving that same error when the last item in the array is 0, otherwise all works perfectly.
When I run the same group of numbers and dates in Excel it returns without issue.
-265500.00,-690000.00,-570000.00,16814.25,-855000.00,-619500.00,55293.46,30411.40,15183.76, 0.00
01-25-2007,03-06-2007,05-02-2007,06-29-2007,08-01-2007,08-24-2007,09-17-2007,03-14-2008,05-28-2008,03-31-2010
=XIRR(A2:J2,A1:J1,-0.1)
Is there a known bug in Crystal's XIRR function when the last value is 0?
Or a hot-fix that will repair this?
Thanks in advance,
Gary
PS. I am using Crystal XI Product Version: 11.0.0.2495

Why doesn't the location information in an iCal meeting show up on my iPhone, when it does show up in iCal?

Why doesn't the location information show up on my iPhone 4S calendar when I accept an invitation to a meeting?
The other information such as the date, time and invitees all show up on the iPhone, while in iCal all the information including the Location field is showing up.

If it won't charge you probably need to try a different dock to usb cable. More information on troubshooting this is available here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591.

The application works and I do have location-based services on. I'm just wondering why the icon itself does not show the current temperature. Sort of how they upgraded the clock after show the current time.

thanks for the reply. You prompted me to check and I realised it wasn't installed on my test laptop and opening in Microsoft Reader. I've installed it now and it works.
My next challenge is to prevent the mailto: command opening Microsoft Mail instead of Outlook, but I guess every user will have a different default.
Thank you

Without more information, speculation is a waste of time. At the least tell us what you do, what the results are, and how that result differs from your expectation. Then tell us what steps you have taken to resolve the issue, and what the results of taking those steps was.

I have Adobe Reader X on Windows Vista. Why doesn't the Printer for Adobe PDF show up in my Hardware/printers? Or can I add it to the Hardware/Printers?

I have Adobe Reader X in Windows Vista. Why doesn't the Adobe PDF show up as a printer in my Hardware/Printers? Or can I add it to the Hardware/Printers? And how?

Adobe Reader - FREE - reads PDF files, prints them, fills forms.
Adobe Acrobat - $$ - as Reader, and makes PDFs and edits them, sorta, and does a bunch more.
So if you had Acrobat try and find the license to avoid having to pay again...

Why doesn't the sd card or the usb connect to my mac ????

why doesn't the sd card or the usb connect to my mac plzzzz help meeeeeeeeeee

The reason no one has replied is that you posted in a little-viewed forum for an obsolete Apple software suite. I am asking the Hosts to move you to the MacBook Air forum.
Also these forums are NOT chat rooms so you will seldom get an instant answer. No one here works for Apple; we are end users like you who volunteer on a time-available basis to help our fellow Mac users. Patience is required here.
