Apple Modem (for dialup) doesn't work in Lion. Why?

We have no acceptable alternatives for dialup where I live here. Even dialup is difficult. But the Apple Modem does not work in Lion!
Anyone know why Apple did that?
And what alternative is there for us (other than resinstalling Snow Leopard).
Does Apple not know that there are still PLENTY of places with poor or non-existent Internet services?
Does anyone know of an option?
Using a MacBookPro, but the problem appears to be Lion so the hardware would not seem to matter...

Apple Movie trailer download doesn't work in Lion

Has anyone have this problem. When I'm on the Apple movie trailer site, I select the trailer I want to see. Once the movie page loads, there is a roll bar to either select watch now or download the trailer at higher resolutions on my computer. I normally select the 720p versions and quicktime pops up and starts downloading the trailer. Since I've updated to LION, this doesn't happen anymore. Any solutions?
Thanks

I think I've solved the problem. It's turning on the extensions to start the ClickToPlugin (2.3.2). Part of the ClicktoFlash extension group. Once I turned disabled ClicktoPlugin, everything worked. SO BE WARNED!

I cannot access my old email address anymore, however I have used it for my apple ID and now I want to delete it because the account has never been verified in the first place so my password for it doesn't work. What do I do?

I cannot access my old email address anymore, however I have used it for my apple ID and now I want to delete it because the account has never been verified in the first place so my password for it doesn't work. So when I want to download apps I have to sign in with apple id but I can't so I made a new one, However I can't seem to be able to delete the old one. What do I do?

You can't merge Apple IDs. You also can't cancel (delete) and existing ID, you can only choose to stop using it.
If your old ID was compromised and you can no longer access it, you'll have to contact Apple for assistance. Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then then 'Apple ID account Security’.

I have an Iphone 3GS and the app for Facebook doesn't work anymore...

I have an Iphone 3GS and the app for Facebook doesn't work anymore since last update made yesterday.
How can I restore it without the last update?
Or, what can I do to have the Facebook back again on my mobile?
Thank you for your help.

Hi Ricoco,
I too had exact issue what you were experienced, then I went to Apple autorised service center and submitted my earpods, their it worked with all versions of Apple iphones, but it didn't worked on my 3gs. The service technician suggested for OS upgrade.Then I came home and I took the backup and upgraded 5.1 to 6.1 as he suggested, also it didn't worked. I was totally frustated and suddenly I got an idea!. What a funny thing here is, a safety pin resolved my issue, I took out all dust which was there in the jack hole. Then I check my earpods, it was amazing you know..MY EAR PODS WORKED!.
If you still have this issue, I hope this will help you.

My external Apple USB Keyboard letters doesn't work, but the numbers do. Why and how can I fix this issue?

My external Apple USB Keyboard letters doesn't work, but the numbers do. Why and how can I fix this issue? Also, When I open the Keyboard Viewer, the letters will highlight only if I hold the modifier key(s) "Control" or "Control and Option". I really need help with this. I don't have any other computer to try it on, so I will have to test it on a friends computer sometime. But perhaps solutions that I can try right now? Thanks.

Hello there, IDuncan23.

Quicktime for windows doesn't work, wont let me uninstall or update.Help!

Quicktime for windows doesn't work, won't let me uninstall (tells me fatal errro) or update (tells me it encountered an error on installation). Help!I am running Windows XP on an Intel pentium PC. Any ideas? Dvora

When you get this fatal error uninstalling, try a full removal of iTunes and related programs with an installer clean up of any that do not uninstall cleanly:
Here is a method:
Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program.
To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install Cleanup
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
*If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
Restart your PC.
Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
restart your PC
Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
If it does, install iTunes.

I created an Apple ID for iTunes using a work email address and left that company before I had an opportunity to change the email and password for that account. How do I change the email address to a new one that I can access?

I created an Apple ID for iTunes using a work email address and left that company before I had an opportunity to change the email and password for that same account. Now I can't seem to login to that account and I can't choose the option for forgot password because it will send email to the old workplace. How do I change the email address to a new one that I can access?

If you remeber the password to that Apple ID then follow these steps
1 - Make sure you have an email address that is NOT an Apple ID
2 - Go to AppleID.Apple.com
3 - Where it reads Manage Apple ID - Sign in
Once you are signed in want to make sure the email address you are wanting to use is NOT set up as a "Recovery/Rescue" email for this account.
[To check this - Main page where you see Primary ID - below do you see the email address you want to use listed towards the bottom? Yes - Delete / No - Good ./. If made any adjustments "Save" Next on the left select "Password & Security" - Answer your security questions you set up "if you have any" then scroll towards the bottom and check to see if you see the email address you want to use. Yes - Delete / No - Good] <-> Also you can change your password on this page as well. Any adjustments made "Save"
Once this is done go back to the main page where you should read "Primary ID" and change the email address that is showing to the new email address youo want. "Save" Done
I learned this not to long ago and worked for me. Hope this helps you!

We got a new Apple TV for Christmas and it works wonderful. However, my question is this. We are on a satelitte internet system and our bandwidth is limited. Can anyone tell me what effect it will have on using up my 10 megs of bandwidth?

We got a new Apple TV for Christmas and it works wonderful. However, my question is this. We are on a satelitte internet system and our bandwidth is limited. Can anyone tell me what effect it will have on using up my 10 megs of bandwidth? If I run over the 10 mgs, the service either slows way down until it is reset on the first of the next month or I have to purchase additional bandwidth and it can get expensive.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

If you only have a 10MB limit on the Internet connection you might as well not have Internet access and certainly should not attempt to stream anything.
If the limit is 10GB, then you will need to be careful with streaming as most video is 1-3GB for a one hour show.

Voice command for Contacts doesn't work after a re...

Voice command for Contacts doesn't work after a reboot or a contacts restore.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Backup contacts. Open Files > Backup & Restore > Select Contact for Backup Contents and select Back up now.
2. Edit/save a contact, press and hold the call button, speak contacts name. The voice recognition works fine.
3. Restore contacts. Open Files > Backup & Restore > Select Contact for Backup Contents and select Restore.
4. Reboot phone when prompted.
5. Press and hold the call button, speak contacts name. The voice recognition does not work.
Work around:
Edit and save each contact.
Additional Information:
Social integration with contacts also does not work after a reboot. The facebook icon and "See what xxx is up to on Facebook" is not displayed. The same work around "Edit and save each contact" also applies. This occurs using the Nokia N8 and Nokia 808 Pureview.

I have my phone paired with my car, I can do everything except it does not recognize any of my contact names. If I try say a contact name, it says "not recognized" but if I say the contacts phone number, the name pops up onthe display in my car.
Has anyone had this issue, is there a setting I am missing in my phone?
Hello,
This is not necessarily and issue with the phone. It could also be an issue with the car`s bluetooth software that is only limited to some functions like reading your contacts list, last calls, missed calls, etc. which is most likely the basic 2.0 version.
The Z30 has the 4.0 version that has a lot more communication capability but if the car`s bluetooth its a lower version, then you will not be able to take full advantage of it unless you upgrade the bluetooth software in your car. Call your dealer and inquire about the bluetooth software upgrade in your car

Textvariable with replacement path for 0CALMONTH doesn't work ...

Hello expert,
we have done release upgrade BW 7.01 -> BW 7.3 SPS 04. While checking queries I found out that textvariables with replacementpath for 0CALMONTH doesn't work anymore. In the report I only see the variable name like ZVARXYZ01 but want to see something like 'JAN 2011'.
As far as I understand 0CALMONTH don't need a texttable. Texts can be found in table T247. I checked the table and all values looks fine.
Any Idea where the problem is or how I can analyze it?
Thank you in advance,
Peter

Hi Peter
Please check this link, especially this note for text variable problems after upgrade to 7.3

I have 3 macs. 2 are Lion, 1 I left Snow leopard so I can access data from my old Quicken Application that doesn't work with Lion. If I move to iCloud, will I no longer be able to access my MobileMe email on the Snow Leopard mac?

What version of word do you have? The TS3938 sounds like it's a PowerPC app- written for an old architecture that is no longer supported in Lion. If this is the case, your files are fine- you just need a newer version of word that will run in Lion in order to open them. The newest version (2011) should be readily available anywhere, and has worked fine for me ever since I switched to Lion on release day....

The 7 key doesn't work after lion install

The 7 key on my MacBook pro keyboard doesn't work following lion installation. (I'm using my iPad right now obviously!)
When I press 7, basically random stuff will come out. A set of 3 to 5 random numbers or some "command" that whatever program I am in doesn't recognize.
I tried rebooting. I have no idea where to even begin, help!

And of course this morning all keys are back to working again! But last night it was 7, J, U gibberish.
At first glance it does seem like something that might be a hardware problem, but I am deeply suspicious of coincidences like this. I'm kind of like house md that way I guess. Especially when at least two of us experienced this.
I think I will also wait for the next software update and see if that helps. At least I have my iPad to use when the keys are on the fritz.
Good luck!

Ctrl + numbers switch between spaces doesn't work in lion

After a fresh install of Lion I'veexperienced strange behavior in mission control. I copied all my apps,documents, settings, etc. from SL to Lion but I noticed something different in Lion. Before I changed spaces by using ctrl+number-keys but for some reasonthis doesn’t work in Lion for me. It does nothing. When I hold down ctrl anduse the arrow-key it scrolls to the next space with a smooth animation. Afterthis and still holding the ctrl-key and pressing a number-key (3 for instance)it does jump to that space with a faster animation. But after releasing thectrl-key and trying it again without any arrow keys involved it doesn’t work atall. Is there anyone hew is experiencing the same problem? Anyone with a possibleexplanation or a way to solve this issue? I’m wondering if this has somethingto do with the clean install because my father did an upgrade from SL to Lionand ctrl+number-keys to switch between spaces works fine for him.
Thanks in advance,

Go to the Keyboard preference pane -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> Mission Control and check to see if you have the ^ + number keys set.

Very outdated. You need V7
And FYI, this software has nothing to do with partitioning, it neither creates nor needs one.
