Weak connection/Freezing with the new Plantronics Discovery 975

After talking to other Plantronic Disc. 975 users with Palm Pres, I would like to reach out further! The head set for $130.00 has static and popping with the head set and phone within arms reach. Also, when hanging up on a call with the ear piece, the Pre goes black! The slider does not turn the phone off or on again! You have to tap the on off button to get to Pre to respond!. Any body else beside me and my friends with this problem? Thanks!! 
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

OMG!! I thought it was my ear piece! You guys need to fix this! Im yelling at these poor guys frm Plantronics and its the Palm pre? Can you say new update!!!!! Soon please, like maybe tomorrow! It not a lot of noise but its there! You also cant walk to far frm your phone without it dropping out! Thats to weak! Thank you!!

  • Has anyone noticed their iPad is slower and freezes with the new IOS 7 upgrade

    Is anyone having problems with your iPad freezing with the new operating system

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • Anyone finding it the mac completely freezes with the new lion software?

    have just converted from PC and downloaded the new OS X Lion.. anyone finding it freezing quite frequently?

    Try running disk utility on your hard drive to verify/repair also repair the permissions. 

  • Why won't my bluetooth connection work with the new sofware when it comes to my ITunes?

    After I installed the software, my phone will connect to the bluetooth (so the phone and such work and the music) but I can no longer control my music from the radio and see the song that is up (scroll on screen). I have checked all the settings, but they are good. So it has to be the software.

    There is an alternative downloader for 64-bit editions of Windows here:
    iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
    that seems to address the most of the playback issues - including problems with Bluetooth devices - that some users have been reporting with the full 64-bit version (the alternative installer here is the same architecture as most previous "64-bit" versions of iTunes, i.e., a 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer).  The "for older video cards" label appears to be something of a misnomer as some people have reported that this corrects problems found on current / high-spec systems.
    Some users have reported that after installing this alternative version it is necessary to adjust the "Play audio using" selection (normally to "Direct Sound" rather than "Windows Audio Session", though this may vary based on your audio hardware/drivers) in Edit > Preferences > Playback to restore glitch-free audio (one part of the reported symptoms is that the "Direct Sound" choice isn't available, usually in Windows 8).
    Another possible remedy relates to a potential clash between the 64-bit version of iTunes 12 and Google Chrome; some users have reported that uninstalling Chrome (not just not having it running) resolves the iTunes playback issues without having to install the alternative version referred to above.
    Finally, you may want to think about reverting to iTunes 12.0 - see Turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for steps needed to completely remove all installed iTunes components, and for links to the 12.0 installers.

  • Potential connection problems with the new 27" Apple displays

    I'm thinking about purchasing the new 27" Apple displays and I would like to be able to run two of them at once with full 2560 x 1440 resolution. I know that the mac mini display port can output the resolution but does the HDMI port output that rate? I thought HDMI is capped out at 1080? So, if it is possible, does anyone manufacture the adapters needed? And lastly, would it be possible to also run an older (see my specs) Mac Pro with two of these screens? What kind of adapters would be needed for that? Has Apple just decided that one monitor is all anyone will ever need and that they are no longer going to support the older DVI connectors? Thanks.

    To steer us back to my original post: I was asking specifically about the mac mini and the new 27" display. If you have any of the older mac models most of them support dual dvi. The newer mac mini only supports one display port and one HDMI port. I believe that the highest resolution that HDMI 1.3 supports is 1980 x 1200. My understanding is (after some research) that there is HDMI 1.4 protocol already developed that supports higher resolution but this has not been widely implemented yet. Also, my other concern was the connectors on the new display. Only the mini display port with a male end. This almost guarantees that you will need some sort of cable/connector to anything except the newer macbooks. Just some observations - that's all.

  • Has anyone else had problems with their macbook freezing with the new OS Lion?

    Mine kept freezing in iPhoto and had to turn computer off?

    Without proper system information nobody can tell you anything. there could be any number of reasons why the download gets corrupted from virus scanners accessing the files and damaging them to your harddrive being damaged or fragmented to a bad network connection already corrupting it... Check al lthat stuff, turn off the pertinent components, clean up your drive.

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
    http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

    Hi Brian,
    Thanks restoring and restarting didn't fix my problem - i have started it fresh and still it doesn't work. Basically I press ONCE on the remote, after the machine has not had any commands for 10 minutes, and the cursor skips from one end of the menu to the other - so I can't choose network or update software etc - I sometimes manage to stop it randomly in the middle of the menu if I press on a command in the middle of the cursor skipping all the menu steps...not sure what the problem is but I have basically not used my brand new apple tv since I bought it for that reason! I should call Apple support I suppose! grrrr hate wasting time with stuff like this!
    Thanks for your help though!

    My laptop died so I've installed itunes onto another PC and my music is all on an external hardive which is connected to the new PC. How can I sync my ipod with the new itunes and get all the music onto itunes?

    You might consider itunes match for moving CDs you've copied into your itunes library if you dont have a way to use home sharing.
    iTunes match is an optional service offered by apple that costs about $25 a year.  It scans your music library and if it finds music that is already in apple's itunes catalog it'll automatically "unlock"/"store" these in the cloud for you.  Items that it does not find in the catalog it'll upload and store these in the cloud for you and you can download them on your devices.  See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

    I use Firefox 95% of the time, and there's no problem with flash content (and I'm still at .55 - downloaded .64 last week but I haven't got round to making the change yet). At the rate they've been changing it recently it may well be out of date already .
    I've been trying it in Safari, too with no problems apart from You Tube, but that's because I'm blocking Google cookies.
    One thought does occur - if your Flash preferences are set to block all Local Storage, it may be that the problem site is trying to use Flash cookies (LSOs). I had this problem recently with the BBC iPlayer streaming content. Little Snitch notified an attempt to connect to a new URL - emp.bbci.co.uk.
    If I disallowed it, no streaming; when I allowed the connection, it still wouldn't stream, so I did a bit of digging and came to the conclusion that it was trying to set a Flash cookie. When I unblocked, lo and behold - streaming resumed as normal.
    I now have LSOs blocked in a more subtle way that lets the site think it's being set (but it ain't) and the streaming still works.
    As for permissions repair - always repair from local; the permissions on the original disc will have been superceded by updates and new installations of Apple software.
    DU needs to be reading the packages on the HD, not the (now out of date) install disc.
    The recurring repair messages are normal and don't mean anything's wrong. As long as the final message is 'repair complete' there's no need to dwell on it.
