App of the Day - pop up
For the last few days, I have been getting a pop up (overnight) thata dvertizes an app to download.
I haven't added any new apps, but a couple have been updated in that time frame?
This falls under the spam category in my opinion...
If anyone has a way to track which app this might be, let me know. I'l be trying to better note the issue going forward.
OS 7.1 on 9930 VZW
Thanks
We're all out here together...
I too have the same issue. I've not added any new apps but several have updated recently.
It's a pain having to keep clearing the screen but the bigger issue is the fact that it seems to be running the battery flat.
How do I remove it?
Thanks.

How to stop annonying app of the day popups
I have been unable to find a solution on line to stop the annonying app of the day pop-ups. Then are now even coming into my email. I removed all app access to my BB. I have the BB bold 9650. I've been waiting for the new devices, but if this keeps up, I may ditch the whole thing.
Solved!
Go to Solution.Similar to what the others have said...
It is a specific free app you've downloaded, I don't know which one.
You'll need to completely delete that app from your BlackBerry, when you determine which it is.
The messages you're getting.. note the app publisher and and then compare that to the free apps you have installed.

I tried to download the " app of the day " and was told that I was in the US store and that I needed to go to the Canada store. I never encountered this before .
As far as I know I registered in the US store. Does anyone have any advice.

i can not find "app of the day" from app store on my ipod,how can i find and download it?
It is possible that the app was removed from the App Store. If so you will not be able to get it back, unless you have it downloaded on your computer.
If you had downloaded it before and it is still in the store, you can go to the App Store app on your iPod and go to the Updates tab. Then you tap on "Purchased" and see if it is available to download from your previous purchases.
Hope this helps!

Deleted or cancelled "App of the Day 100% Free" App
Where did the "App of the Day 100% Free App" go? My old man's is corrupted and he needs to re-download it but it has disappeared.
Yeah, if it was available in the past, and now no longer is, then your only option is to restore it from a backup, which does not really sound like it would be feasible for you. There probably is a good reason why it is no longer available, so sounds like it might be best to just delete it entirely.
If you go to the iTunes Store (on your Computer) or go to the App Store on your device, there is a "Free App of the Week" selection on the "Featured" screen:
Maybe that's what you are looking for? No app needed!

Why am being asked for credit card info for a free app of the day?
IIf an app of the day is free why am I being asked to update my credit card info?
If you have a credit card on your account then it has to valid and its details correct.
If this is the first time that you've tried to use the account in the store then unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
If you are being prompted to review your account then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054 -
I sometimes get ad popup "app of the day", earlier I found it may come from google applications, however it appeared again. I have deleted almost all free apps. I found this in the log:

Time: Jun 16, 2013 06:00:00
GS+Q1 6b48fc79com.sgt.menuwifi.ads.AdvtPopup
Actually menuwifi is a paid application that shouldn't contain any AD, so I really don't understand the case.Hey ferenci84,
Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
I would suggest reaching out to the application vendor for information on stopping the popups, please see here:
How to contact support for third-party applications purchased using BlackBerry App World on a BlackBerry smartphone: http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/KB27706
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks.

Removing "Tip of the Day" Pop-up
Any info on how to remove and prevent these annoying pop-ups like "tip of the day?"
Good to know. Thanks Tom...

Hi folks. I have some good news, and some bad news. Bad news: Nothing you do on the Set Top Box will affect the "tip of the day"That's my software that is making that pop up. Good news: It was accidently turned on in a recent release, and we have gonethrough and turned it back off. I know it's anoying, and we are very sorry wemade it. It was designed to help a user for the first time figure out how to use theXR11. It seemed like a good idea then. If you see it again, please post to this thread and I'll make sure we turn it offquickly. Apologies for that, Tom -
OK Folks,
I've done reading about people telling us all that there isn't a native PIM application on the PlayBook (it's coming, guys!). So let's look at what we have got. Hopefully it will help other folk out, too.
Tell us what app you're using that day - why you like it - and any other bits and pieces you want to add.
One per day per poster please. Let's see if we can find some cool apps between us!

I gave a development version of Go Studio a play. It is basically a live multitrack mixer that you can use your microphone or audio files on your playbook.
Loop them, play them or just have samples ready to go at the touch of a button.
A nice, fun music app.
Anyone else?

Is there a discrete, limited space for apps on the macbook air?
I bought a new "air" for my wife and she loves it but ... Yesterday a message popped up about insufficient space for apps. The box popped up repeatedly and could not be dismissed. Today, on "spec" I deleted the Google Chrome app and restarted the machine and now it seems OK. I want to know more.

The computer has 128GB and when I checked I found about 100 available. However, that was after we got it started again. When the message was appearing we could do nothing with the computer.
I realize this is a small "hard drive" but she has had it only 2 weeks and it is not loaded up (yet). What I really want to know is if discrete sections of the solid state drive have been pre-designated for certain tasks. Specifically is there a limited amount of space given to apps?
No, there is just 'space' and you can put anything you want in it.

Iphone app that pop ups a list of the day's events everyday?
Is there an iphone app that will automatically 'pop up' a list of the current day's events/appointments?
Allan Eckert wrote:
Maybe you should go talk to Steve Jobs about the great problem you are having.
I wish that were still an option -
I want to write a script or Automator workflow/app that automatically emails a random shortcut of the day to three recipients. The source is from an Excel spreadsheet. One column is the shortcut, and the second column is the definition. Anyone have similar experience and know that this would work?
I have had a first stab at the script, below. It uses a file to store the shortcuts and command [descriptions]. You should be able to see from the script annotations how to add a new one. (I populated 1-4 with real data, but got lazy after that, so you have a few placeholders to work with first.
As I have noted, once you are happy that you have all the data in the file, you can comment out part of the script for ongoing use. (BTW, my reluctance to use Excel is that I don't currently have it installed and I don't want to offer wrong advice. If you have Numbers, I do have that and could probably modify to work with a spreadsheet from there. This might be especially useful if you have the data already sitting in Excel.)
A few things came-up whilist I was writing the script:
1. Currently, all recipients will not only get the same tip at the same time, but they will see the names and email addresses of the others who receive them. It is possible to modify this.
2. I have added a property gRandomCheck which keeps track of which shortcut has already been used (since the last time the script was compiled. This will prevent the same tip being sent more than once. When all tips have been sent once, the script will alert you and not send anything until reset. It does not check on a per-addressee basis (which would be a refinement). (If you add a new addressee at this stage, the whole process will start again, and you may not really want this to be the behaviour.)
3. The way that I have built the list, commandList, is deliberately cumbersome - it's for the sake of clarity. If you prefer, you can construct the whole list as {{shortcut:"X", command:"X"}, {shortcut:"Y", command:"Y"}}
Have a look - I am sure you will have questions!
SCRIPT STARTS HERE Paste the following lines (thru the end) into a new AppleScript Editor document and press RUN
--The property gRandomCheck persists between runs and is used to stop sending the same hint twice.
property gRandomCheck : {}
--I am defining a file on the desktop. It doesn't have to be in this location
set theFolder to path to desktop
set commandFile to (theFolder as text) & "CommandFile.csv"
--(* Unless you need to change the file contents you do not need to write to it each time. Remove the "--" on this line and before the asterisk about 18 lines below
--Follow this format and enter as many records as you like on a new line - each with a unique name
set record1 to {shortcut:"Z", command:"Undo"}
set record2 to {shortcut:"R", command:"Record"}
set record3 to {shortcut:"⇧R", command:"Record Toggle"}
set record4 to {shortcut:"⌘.", command:"Discard Recording & Return to Last Play Position"}

set record11 to {shortcut:"X", command:"x"}
set record12 to {shortcut:"X", command:"x"}
set record13 to {shortcut:"X", command:"x"}
--Make sure you add the record name before randomCheck:
set commandList to {record1, record2, record3, record4, record5, record6, record7, record8, record9, record10, record11, record12, record13}
--This part writes the above records to the file each time.
set fileRef to open for access commandFile with write permission
set eof of fileRef to 0
write commandList to fileRef starting at eof as list
close access fileRef
--remove "--" here to stop writing (see above)*)
--This reads from the file
set fileRef to open for access commandFile with write permission
set commandList to read fileRef as list
close access fileRef
--Here's where the random record is chosen
set selected to 0
if (count of gRandomCheck) is not (count of commandList) then
repeat
set selected to (random number from 1 to (count of commandList))
if selected is not in gRandomCheck then
set gRandomCheck to gRandomCheck & selected

tell application "Mail"
--When you're ready to use, you probably will not want Mail popping to the front, so add "--" before activate
activate
--You can change the subject of the message here. You can also set visible:true to visible:false when you are happy all is working OK

I am trying to install an app from the app store and because I have multiple apple IDs (liek many others) I tapped in the wrong password and got the "your appleID has been disabled" pop p. I have now reset the password again but the pop up still appears. Any suggestions please?
many thanksfull marks to apple support for resolving this quickly and painlessly, at least after stumbling through the security questions and identity verification. So many passwords on so many devices and apps these days...

How do I recover my Mac Book Pro back to the day I purchased it? Will I lose apps that came with the Mac Book if I recover it?
Press the command and r keys when turning on your Macbook. Do not release those keys until you see the apple logo...
Disk Utility will pop up.....Your choices are to reinstall, you will not lose anything....
if however, you decide to format/erase your drive, then reinstall, you will lose everything...
suggestion - back everything up and do a clean install.
good luck
