When I call using my skype online number, caller id shows the correct number but also displays someone elses name. How can I remove the name?
I have the same problem. Although I have my Caller ID set to show my Skype Number businesses tell me they're seeing area code 559 with a random/different last 4 digits each time. I just went through an account verification with a vendor and it was impossible to get them to verify - kept telling me I need to be calling from the number they have on file.
Come on Microsoft. There's no way to actually get support (for a paid product no less), let alone see anyone participating in support (hic) forums to resolve countless issues that others are reporting.

Caller ID showing the wrong number (a different on...
I live in Massachusetts, USA.
When I am calling a US business, sometimes a toll-free (800/877/866) and other times not, the number shows up with a (559) area-code and a different number each time. If I am calling someplace important (bank/internet provider/electric company/PayPal) they will give Me a hard time as I am not calling from the number they have listed.
This is NOT a Windows issue. To suggest udating to the latest version is offensive. I am running Windows 7 with all the most recent updates. I need a real solution. Not some platitude of, "Make sure you are running the most current verion of Skype." (I am). This happens no matter what computer I am logged into with My Skype account.
I have checked several times the the number listed in "Display this number when I call mobiles and landlines from Skype" is correct. The number displays correctly when I call some businesses and all home Caller IDs, but not to other businesses. Every business I call is in the US.I have the same problem. Although I have my Caller ID set to show my Skype Number businesses tell me they're seeing area code 559 with a random/different last 4 digits each time. I just went through an account verification with a vendor and it was impossible to get them to verify - kept telling me I need to be calling from the number they have on file.

Anyone have suggestions?
Go to:
Settings > General > Date & Time > Time Zone
Check if you have your correct zone selected. Also, do you sync your calendars with any Mac or PC or Web service (like Google calendar)? If so, check if all your time zone settings are the same.

I've had my old O2 number transferred to my new iphone 4s on 3. my facetime and imessage show my transferred number but in the phone settings its still showing as the number that came with the phone.
When i message someone it seems to be showing as either one or the other if its a text conversation its converting from one to the other then back again. Also on imessage its reverted to using my email address.
Does anyone know how to make it so that everything is showing the correct number. i have turned both facetime/imessage off, turned my phone off and on again turned facetime/imessage back on again which sorted the numbers showing on them. But in phone settings thats not done the trick.
Please Help!!!When you go to Settings>Phone, what shows as your phone number? Is the temporary number you describe there or your regular phone number? You should be able to set it there. I don't know if there is a new place for setting anything associated with iMessage. I cannot find any reference in the iOS 5 manual regarding changing settings.

App Store shows that I have 9 updates but all Apps are up to date I have tried re downloading all the updates. All Apps show the correct version number post update.
I have the same issue with one App in the App Store. The app is installed and current. But the App Store says I have an update. I tried restarting. No help.

SIRI finds the correct number, makes the call and then immediately disconnects.
If I use Siri to make a call the system usually finds the correct number then makes the call and then immediately disconnects. This is really frustrating.
I have a 2010 Toyota Landcruiser Sahara with a Pioneer system with built-in bluetooth.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
BTW the phone works well with a hyundai i30.
I never had this problem with my BlackberryThat's interesting. Try saying "Call Mobile" instead of just "Mobile". If you're still having trouble, try hard booting your phone holding down Power + Home until the device reboots.

CUCM doesn't show the translated number
Hey guys,
I had this working on my Call Manager and not sure what has happened, was hoping someone could help.
I have a number of translation patterns configured so that if a user dials another user by their external DID number, the CM routes the call internally.
This still works - however after dialling the full external number, once the dialling is finished we used to see the translated (shortened internal) number of the phone but now we are only seeing exactly what was dialled.
Example:
Internal user has extension 2000, this extension has a DID of number 073072000
If I am on extension 2200 and I dial 073072000 then on my phones display it would change to 2000 as soon as I finished dialling digits.
Now for some reason it is no longer changing the number to 2000 after I finish dialling - it just displays the actual dialled digits of 073072000.
I know that the translation pattern is working, due to call access restrictions the call would normally be blocked. It just is not showing the translated pattern on the phone display.
The pattern is configured as:
007307.2XXXX
The Called Party Transformation is set to discard PreDot.
Thoughts?Thanks this was the setting I had changed!
I had turned it to True as this meant incoming calls from UCCX to agents then shows the callers number and not the CTI port that sends the call over to CUCM - which is annoying.
Sucks you can only have it one way or the other system wide. -
IPhone World Clock doesn't show the correct times
How do I get the iPhone to show the correct World Clock times. I have the time zone set to San Diego and the clock time is correct. When I set San Diego as one of the World Clock times it shows a time 7 hours behind. New York is 4 hours behind instead of 3 hours ahead, the same 7 hour bust.
emr1100 ,
Have you tried resetting the phone.? Hold down the sleep/wake button and the home button until it restarts. If that doesn't work, try a restore....please back up your data with a sync before you restore the phone. If that doesn't work take it back to the Apple stor and let them take a look at it. They will fix it or give you another phone. Another idea...call AT&T to see if sometining can be "reset" on their end. You never know ...that might work also.

I've transferred my old no to my new iphone 5, but it is still showing the original number in my contacts. How do I change this?
Skip the iCloud sign in for now.
Once you reach the home page, go to settings and sign out of FaceTime and Messages. This should also sign you out of iCloud.
Go to iCloud in settings and sign in with the correct Apple ID.
If that does not work
Skip the iCloud sign in
Go to Apple ID.apple.com and sign in
Change your Apple ID to the old one
Delete iCloud account on your device with the old Apple ID and the same password.
Go back to the website, change your Apple ID back to the current one. You will receive an email to verify the account. Verify first.
Sign into iCloud on your device with the correct Apple ID and password -
I have unlocked iphone and got walmart family mobile. I was issued a phone number initially then asked for a different one. Now when I send text messages, they show up the original number, but when I make phone calls, the id shows up the new number, I can recieve text messages to both numbers. If you try to call the first number it says it is not a working number. On my phone, if I go under "about" it says "my phone number" and it says the second number, under settings, and messaging, it says that I send and recieve messages from the original one. T-mobile, has no idea why this is happening and has tried everything to fix it
This is for iMessages only, not for text messages as in SMS/MMS.
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID.
Select your Apple ID and at the menu window that appears, select Sign Out.
Turn iMessage off at Settings > Messages > iMessage.
Then follow these instructions.
You can remove an iPhone from your support profile by following these steps.
Step 1: Click on this link to open the login window of your support profile.
Step 2: Log into the website using your Apple ID – same as your iTunes login.
Step 3: Click on the button ‘Edit products’ and select the iPhone that you want to remove from the list.
Step 4: Click on the arrow behind the product, and then click on the button ‘Unregister’ to delete the iPhone from your support profile.
After you unregister your iPhone, on your iPhone go to Settings > Messages > iMessage and turn iMessage on.
Go to Settings < Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID. Sign back in with your Apple ID.
This should re-register your iPhone with your Apple ID with iMessage with the new phone number only. -
The illustration does not have the correct number of operands...
I work on a Macbook Pro 10.8.5. When I open a file in AI CC and place any number of images, save and close the file. When I reopen the file I get this message. 'Can't open the illustration. The illustration does not have the correct number of operands for an operator... etc.' The file scan still open after this but all the placed images disappear.
I've tested placing different formats ie. JPGs, TIFs, PNGs, flattened PSDs etc. They all come up with the same error.
I've searched in Google and I haven't found a solution yet. There was a suggestion to import the AI file in INDD, this doesn't help beause all copy converts to outlines and embeds the images.
Can anyone help?Hi, just tried this and AI says 'Could not open the file'. Here's a couple of screen grabs to show you my file setup and the exact error message.

Smart Playlists not showing the correct songs on iPhone 4
I created a "Smart Playlist" called "100 Newest" which takes the 100 newest songs added to my music list on iTunes. It displays perfectly on iTunes on my computer but when I sync my iPhone4 to my iTunes, it syncs the regular playlists I create to my phone just fine. But the "smart playlists" added to my iPhone show up with the correct title, but when I view the playlist on my iPhone, it shows all the songs in my Library under that playlist. It will NOT show the 100 Newest songs like it shows on my playlist when viewed in iTunes on my iMac. Grrrrrr! Does anyone know how to fix this annoying problem. It's one problem after another I'm dealing with in terms of these playlists to appear and play prooperly on iPhone ios 5.0.x.

Moving a jpg on a game board to the correct number of spaces
I am currently doing a project for college and I am stuck. First of all I have a picture of a game board on screen. I have an array of objects which include position, x coord, y coord and instruction on each space. What I need to do is move a picture of a car the correct number of spaces that I have spun e.g if I spin a 3 then I would have to move 3 spaces. After I have draged the car I have to check if it is a valid move and if it is I have to follow the instructions on the space landed on. I was hoping someone could give me a few pointers in the right direction. Thanks

How can I get Messages to show the correct time for read receipts?
Messages in Mountain Lion shows the wrong time for read receipts. For example, my iPad will show a message was read at 3:37 pm but if I open Messages on my MacBook, the read receipt shows the time that I opened the Messages app as opposed to the time the message was actually read. This is not too much of an issue if my iPad is handy, but really, shouldn't Messages on my MacBook be able to show the correct time the message was read? It syncs all the other infromation with Messages on iOs.
I should mention that if Messages is running on my MacBook when the recipient reads the message, then it does show the correct time the message was read. It's if Messages was not running and I re-launch it that the read receipt time gets mixed up.HI,
As far as I am aware Messages marks or time stamps an iMessage at the time of receipt rather then the time you got around to reading it.
I will admit that in most cases reading and receiving as the app opens will be near enough the same time in some conversations.
Adding Time Stamps to Chat is what iChat has always done particularly with AIM based Chats.
The "Sync" in Messages is "display on all devices" and after that each iMessages is dealth with separately on each device.
There is no syncing of deleting/dimssing an iMessages or having read it on another device.
