Another account user is using my apple id as their rescue email. Apple know this but expect me to contact him directly rather that let lim know his error. Seem strange and a recipe for conflict. What do you think?

Another apple account user has put my apple id as their rescue email. Apple know this but expect me to contact him directly rather that let lim know his error. Seem strange and a recipe for conflict. What do you think?

Primary and alternate email addresses need to be verified but a rescue email address doesn't, it can be added to an account and used without being verified (you will get a verify button when adding/changing it, but the system doesn't force it to be verified). I would hope that the person using the email address as their rescue email address will notice that they aren't getting reset emails and that after contacting Support to get their security questions / password reset he/she will check what they've set it to and change it. The OP won't be able to log into the other account as he/she won't know its primary or alternate ids.

  • If you will no longer support Secure Online Account Number add-on in Firefox Version 4, then I no longer have any use for the Firefox browser. Terrible decision to drop it and the Norton toolbar. /:( What are you thinking!!

    dropping users' favorite addons can not help your business. VB Please fix this as soon as possible. You shouldn't put new versions in the auto-update facility until they are fully functional with know add-ons. Bad move.

    Add-ons are the responsibility of their authors. McAfee does not even put their extension on http://addons.mozilla.org you had to install it from their site.
    Disable "McAfee Site Advisor" extension which was just updated to 3.4.0, which probably took it out of the addons block list.
    * "Ctrl+Shift+A" > find McAfee Site Advisor and use "Disable", and then restart Firefox.
    * Do a Google Search no problem
    * It seems that if you re-enable Site Advisor again, and restart Firefox you are okay. At least you know where to look if you get the error again or Google searches slow down.

  • An iBook for £20 - what do you think?

    I know this is not really destined to be put on this discussion forum, but the thought of a bargain got the better of me.
    I registered and risked just £20 at:
    http://www.cheapibook.co.uk/
    Has anyone on this forum ever had any success with this website or similar offers?
    I didn't really need an iBook, but thought that £20 was such a small amount, hmmmmmmmmmmm.

    If it's too good to be true, it is !!
    I don't see what is too good to be true. You are using your money to buy an ebook (electronic book) and then your name is put in a list. Your odds are one in 50 that you will win the ibook because they wait till 50 people have entered in order to get the mony needed to buy the ibook. In otherwords, it could be true since it is not really something for nothing anymore than buying a raffle ticket is. Your odds are pretty low though. But it can easily be a scam also. I don't see how they can be held accountable on whether they have given the ibook to anybody.

  • ICase Smart Cover For iPad What Do you Think?

    Just come across this iCase
    http://www.icasecovers.com/ and wondering if any of you have used it?
    Cheers

    Restart - hold the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut down. To power up - hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset - Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider.
    Restore - Hold off on that one for now
    You can try this as well - close open apps from the task bar. Double tap the home button and the task bar appears with all of your recent apps. Tap and hold down on one of the icons until they all wiggle. Then tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the icon to close the app. Close all of the apps in the task bar. Then restart your iPad as described above.

  • Did you know that Verizonwireless is saving your checking account information when you pay your bill by check and then making it part of your "MyVerizon"? This means of course if they get hacked that information could be compromised. What do you think of

    Did you know that Verizonwireless is saving your checking account information when you pay your bill by check and then making it part of your "MyVerizon"  without you adding it? This means of course if they get hacked that information could be compromised. What do you think of this?

    Credit card and debit card and checking and savings information is encrypted so it is possible to be hacked, but the odds are greater to get hit by the Love Boat then to have a wide scale hack.
    Oh yes they do happen, Bank of America, Chase, Citibank, Target and quite a few others. But in all the years I have paid my invoice with saved card information I never been hacked.
    You use good passwords and the risk is minimal.
    Good Luck

  • Idea of a product development for Apple (what do you think)

    This is a photoshopped picture I did of an Apple Macbook charger, were there is the ability to disconnect the cable with the magsafe unit.
    This gives Apple users the ability to change the broken electric cord for a new one without out having to change the whole charger unit
    as also it can be considered good for the environment
      I am not sure if this has come up before, but it would be very usefull to have this option.
    what do you think and is there a way to influence Apple to do this modification?

    Thank you Keith for your information.
      In this case I am not worried about the origin of the idea and some compensation to the creator. If this modification will lead to happier costumers of Apple and more efficient use of material and thus better for the environment (as Apple claim they are always improving ) then I am satisfied.
    It is good that Apple has this Policy and I agree that they can use any idea submission to them as their own. This Idea is so basic and easy to carry out that I believe that many others have thought of it.
    Sometimes it can be good to get a pair of extra eyes or brain to spot were you can improve.
    thanks again for your info

  • What do you think of this plan for a DVD?

    In order to avoid problems with the interaction between the TITLE and MENU remote buttons I've reported in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2151541&tstart=0 and further problems with the remote RETURN button, I am considering designing my DVD as follows:
    Main menu with four buttons:
    1) Play track 1
    2) Play track 2 with audio stream 1
    3) Go to chapter menu
    4) Play story in track 2 with audio stream 2
    Chapter menu with a button for each chapter and a button to return to the main menu
    Disable remote TITLE button in both menus, both tracks, and the story
    Set remote RETURN button in main menu to go to chapter menu
    Set remote RETURN button in chapter menu to go to main menu and highlight button 3
    What do you think? Is it weird that the remote TITLE button would be disabled? Is it weird that the remote RETURN button would go down from the main menu to the chapter menu?

  • What do you think of this Design for Multiple Threads

    Hi Java Experts ;
    I'm curious to know what you think about this design for a multhreaded app i'm working on.
    I have a controller thread that (a.) creates threads and (b.) keeps a reference to threads that it creates (by sticking them in a hashtable along with the generated Id for that thread).
    When a created thread completes its job, it decrements the thread counter and removes its reference from the hashtable before it finishes its run method.
    Now here's the interesting part in my controller thread i'm creating new threads on the fly with this infinite loop
         public void run(){
              while(true){
                   try{
                        Thread.sleep(500);
                   }catch(InterruptedException e){
                   if(threadCounter<maxThreadCount && moreJobsToDo.size()>0){
                        createDomainThread();
              }//end while
    what do you think about this pattern ? My goal is to maintain about 200+ created threads running at all times with this pattern.

    jeff kesslerman's book says about threads
    "5.2.3 Threads
    The impact that threads have on RAM footprint isn't a problem for most programs, but running threads do need space to store their stack state, and the system- specific data structures do consume memory.
    Because runtime implementations vary widely in how threads are handled, you might encounter situations where the impact threads have on footprint is significant. For example, some ports of the JRE create a heavyweight OS process for each running thread. In an application that uses many threads, this means that thread costs, rather than class or object costs, can become the dominant factor in the program's memory consumption.
    You shouldn't avoid using threads-they're necessary in many cases, and generally don't have a large impact on footprint. However, you should be aware that the impact can be very different across runtimes. This is one of the reasons it's a good idea to measure performance characteristics under your program's different target environments. "
    Question #1: how does garbage collection go about clearing the stack state, and the system- specific data structures that consume memory.
    Question #2: in my situation, each worker thread's activity is not as brief as a simple server request. Each thread does a lot work and does a lot of network connections. on average I would say 100 http request - each of which can be easily blocked or delayed significantly. Therefore each worker thread may operate for between 2 - 10 minutes.
    Do you think thread pooling is useful in this situation ?

  • Would be nice for Apple to create means for deleting email across all devices. Time consuming device by device especially for members receiving many emails. What do you think gang?!

    How about Apple creating a means to delete email across devices especially when you have like 4 Apple devices (Mac, Macbook Pro, iPad and iPhone) Would benefit those of us receiving 13 - 1700 messages across the products. iOS 8 coming in fall. What do you think gang. Very frustrating and time consuming!!

    If you have a suggestion for product improvement, provide feedback to Apple - you aren't talking to them here.

    What do you think about the iPhone 4 for my 11 year old daughter

    It should be a good choice. I recently got the 5C which typically is $99 with supported carriers. Verizon, AT&T, Sprint provide attractive pricing with a two year contract or it you are adding a line to your current service. I have several friends using the 4S, and they have been very pleased with them.

  • What do you think about Quick Office for the IPad

    What do you think about Quick Office for the IPad

    You could also have a look at the following www.rollapp.com, I have only recently found it.
    You have access to the full OpenOffice and LibreOffice library of program's  and it syncs with Dropbox,google docs and others.
    You do require an Internet connection as it is cloud based.
    At present I have only used it for quick editing but I think it definitely looks promising and it is free

  • What do you think of tune up software for iTunes?

    What do you think of Tune up sofware for Itunes?

    I agree. I've used iTunes since iTunes 9.0. The new 11.0 update is horrible. With the now missing left side menu, it's very difficult to navigate. You don't know where you are or where to go. I delete everything Apple from my computer, and inverted back to iTunes 10.7.

  • What do you think about using exceptions for something more than errors

    if you look the java.lang.Exception description at the JDK javadoc, you can see the following text:
    "The class Exception and its subclasses are a form of Throwable that indicates conditions that a reasonable application might want to catch."
    ... we can�t see "error" word anywhere!!
    What do you think about using exceptions for something more than errors? Can be possible use them as a way for send information to upper layers?
    Thankx in regards...

    it seems that what you say is a functional way of achiveing that, yes
    but Exceptions are generally reserverd for "Exceptional" situations ie program messing up or invalid data
    it does require a fair bit of processor time to actually generate and throw an Exception.
    so, all in all its "better" to use "normal" condition flow control to achive what you want.. you can always return early, break loops, call methods to pass information
