Back in stone age

Since todays issues/outage (which I actually assume is a massive cyber attack on Apple) I've had the same issues as others e.g. error codes when trying to sign in. no app store, no updates/downloads, iTunes problems. But I am also experiencing complete failure of Mail on Mac, problems with apps already down loaded, Safari not connecting.
Is this what others are experiencing?
I've had to rescue my old laptop PC from back of garage, do a trillion updates to get it working just to get this message on!!!

Apple is having server problems affecting App Store, iTunes, iCloud, etc…
Check the Apple Service Status(***) page… http://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/ Wait for all systems to show green.
Here is what Apple's message says…
Multiple Store Services - All users are affected
     Customers may be unable to make purchases from the App Store, iTunes Store,
     iBooks Store, or Mac App Store.
iCloud Mail - All users were affected
     Users may have been unable to access iCloud mail.
iCloud Account & Sign In - All users were affected
     Users may have been unable to sign in.
This means no downloads, updates, iCloud and other issues. You may get pop-up windows asking you for password for iCloud, etc…
Try again after it's all green on status page.

  • Is this beta? The image for Yosemite is a very big rock, appropriate as this OS sends your mac back to the stone-age. iTunes crashes on open, iPhoto won't download, movies won't play, Safari won't show graphics, wifi down to speed of crippled snail.

    Is this beta. The image for Yosemite is a very big rock, appropriate as this OS sends your mac back to the stone-age. iTunes crashes on open, iPhoto won't update, Safari shows text without graphics, can't get Java 8 'cause Safari "can't find server". Wifi slower than a crippled snail. Does anyone know how to uninstall this rubbish?

  • Back Dated AR Aging Detail - How to see Documents with Open Balances Only?

    Dear All,
    Our customer is trying to submit a back dated AR Aging Detail report to their bank. When they run the report as of 09/30/08, the detailed aging report is 28 pages long and has all the partial payment details which the bank does not need; rendering the report useless.
    We would like to find out if there is a way to run a back dated AR Aging Detail report and only see Document Number, Date and Open Balance.

    Hi,
    Please check Note No. [800294|https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1odSZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=800294] which describes about settings required to run the backdated aging report in 2005 version.
    If you are working with 2007 version, then you need to check the tickbox "Display customer with zero balance" and run the backdated aging report to get the correct results with the open figure (which will match with the AR receivables Account balance as at that date).
    However, if your 2007 version is below patch level 38, you can refer to Note No. [1178854|https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1odSZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=1178854] which can be of help in that case.
    Hope the information was helpful.

  • Phone doesn't turn on at all at the moment, I haven't backed up in ages, is there a way I could back up before sending to Apple to repair?

    Hiya,
    My iPhone 5c doesn't turn on at all at the moment, I think its an internal problem with the screen so doing a hard reset and putting a charger in won't help.
    I haven't backed up in ages. Is there a way I could back up without it needing to be on i.e. connecting to iTunes perhaps? I'm sending my phone to Apple to repair but wondered if I could somehow save my data first?

    First try this
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    If you cannot get it to turn on then all your data is unrecoverable,unless you have a backup

  • Back to the stone age with 6300

    Used to have a 6020 until it was stolen last week (what idiot wanted a 2+ year old basic phone that was switched off 15 minutes after beng stolen?). Worked beautifully in Bury system 8 base unit and cradle: auto switch on, auto unlock, self recorded voice tags etc etc etc. a real handsfree car phone.
    Replaced it with a 6300 in a standard Bury system 8 6300 cradle (non BT). What a disappointment: no auto switch on, no auto unlock, cra??y generated voice tags that are useless, no handsfree profile. Instead it comes up as a headset profile.
    Bury says that Nokia hasn't bothered doing handsfree profiles for their latest phones. If I'm going to be forced to redo the car harness again, Nokia can say goodbye to 15 years of loyalty. (As can Orange - they charged me an upgrade price for the 6300 and told me it was a direct replacement for the 6020!!)

  • Time Machine back up takes ages.

    Hi. I still got the problem that my time machine backup take ages to complete.
    I installed a widged called time machine buddy, someone told me to do and now that's what it shows me.
    Any idea why it looks like it does the backup twice in a row and for what reason it takes about half an hour to copy less then 1GB.
    I allready deleted the HD I use for the backup and got it all new but it did not solve the problem.
    Cheers.

    Very good question, as I've had the same issue for over 2 months since installing a new hard drive. Pondini very kindly, patiently and astutely helped me get a hanging 2 hour back up down to a respectable 15 minutes, but that is still too long (when nothing has changed between back ups, in particular). You articulate the question and pose the dilemma far better than I ever expressed. The seeming "dual backup" seems to be the culprit. Maybe Pondidni can give us some guidance based on your post.

  • Why wont the ipad back up with age resrition on

    hi my 8 year old has a ipad and i have put the restictions on but without taking them off i cant back it up. is there a easier way to do this?

    I have like 2 GB music (that is music videos), 2 GB books (incl audio books), 4 GB apps (30 apps which make only 1 GB on the PC, the rest must come from in-app data I guess) and 30 GB movies on my iPad now. The backup today is only 1 GB. I think what makes the backup larger is the stored in-app data (if you have apps with much and growing data in them).

  • Stuck in the stone age and need some advice

    while ($true)
    $A = (Get-Date -DisplayHint time)
    $log = "c:\Alert-2.csv"
    Myscript | wc > c:Alert.log
    Get-Content -path c:Alert.log | % { $_.Substring(1,7).Trim( ); } > c:Alert-1.log

    Okay I'm stock on a 2003 server that has v2 of powershell, and we are working on replacing but that's ,,,the future.
    My problem is this;
    I just want to append a time stamp  to each new entry in a csv file my script creates, like this
    "0, 01:00:00"
    I get the  "0" before the ',' but nothing after.
    My results are less than optimal and I am hogtied to powershell v2 so any help would be greatly appreciated.

    What do you mean by append.  A CSV is a file of comma separted values and a header.  YOu are trying to add a tab delimited filed with no header.  That won't work.
    To load a CSV wew would do this:
    $csv=Import-Csv $log
    If you want to add and update a field we would do this:
    $csv=Import-Csv $log -header h1,h2,h3...new
    Where h1..hn are the existing columns and "new" is a new column name.  Now you can enumerate and assign the timestamp.
    $ts=Get-Date -Display time
    $csv | %{$_.New = $ts}
    $csv | Export-Csv Outfile.csv -notype
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • We're all living in the stone age

    I just LOVE how us as Americans buy the same phones year after year, just with slight upgrades. We are the only country using an outdated system known as "app store". Our country wants to make more and more money by keeping our phones outdated. AND WE'RE ALL STUPID ENOUGH TO KEEP BUYING THIER OLD CRAP!!!! I would like for all of you to do some research, I would like it if you all looked up how Japan keeps making their new phones with technology that is 30 years more advanced than ours. And they don't even have "app store" anymore because its so outdated. I'm sharing knowledge that Verizon and all the other phone companies don't want us to know, and if this post gets deleted, than its true.

  • Stone Age Broadband Speed - Really really slow

    Hi 
    Hope someone can help. I had BT Broadband installed last November and the speed has never surpassed 75k. Phoned BT a number of times now and they keep running a "clean-up" service at their end but nothing has improved. Annoyingly the previous house owners had BT broadband and the service was fine, as is my next door neighbours, who also run BT broadband. Attached are some diagnostics below, all run from the main BT socket. Any help much appreciated:

  • My PB Is Dead. Any Way To Bring It Back ?

    *Hello all,*
    I've been using Mac for almost 4 years now, and I gotta admit that I can't live without my Mac nor Mac OS X. My Powerbook G4 has got to be the best laptop ever made - it is small yet powerful. I bought mine 3 years ago when Tiger was out, and until yesterday I've never upgraded it save for migrating to Leopard early this year. FYI, I used my Powerbook to the max, doing a lot of heavy duty on its 512MB RAM like Photoshop CS3, Lightroom and etc. Over the year, I've done a lot of damages to my Powerbook, like denting its rear part, the battery losing almost 95% of its charge (thus making it unusable) and I even lost the Wi-Fi capability after I accidentally pulled out the AirPort card during an experiment.
    Nevertheless, I did not have much problem with it, and of course the lags when booting up and starting apps like Photoshop are quite normal. However, my Powerbook freezed up on me 2 days ago as I was watching a movie over Quicktime. I restarted the whole thing, but I got nowhere near the login screen. Fearing the worst, I quickly moved all my data to my friend's Macbook using target disk mode. So far, I've tried reinstall Leopard, but the install screen just won't show up. I even tried to reinstall Tiger, which was successful, but then I just can't see the login screen.
    My question is,
    1. is this a confirmed case of failing HDD?
    2. Since I can't run my PB on battery anymore, I've been using direct power source, and whenever my power cable got disconnected accidentally, the PB will just go dead, and the PB's system date will always reset to 1976 after I reboot it. Yesterday when I booted into Open Firmware screen, I was horrified to see that the system date was shown to be at 1st January 1901. Is this normal?
    So, to all the people here, I'd really appreciate it if somebody can tell me what went wrong and what I can do to get my beloved PB back? Right now with the economic recession and all, I can't really afford to get a new one, nor I really want to send back to the AARs here as they charge quite high just for repairing (Apple being the less popular brand here where I live). Also, there is no way I'm going back to Windows - it's just like going back to Stone Age. So. it'd really be helpful if somebody with similar experiences can tell me what I should do.
    Thanks again for reading.

    Hi everyone,
    Thanks for the replies, and sorry for not signing in for the past one week as I was really busy at work.
    Regarding your suggestions about cleaning up my HDD and all, I've tried 'em all and none seems to bring my PowerBook back to life. I also forgot to add one more thing - the screen was a bit fuzzy and there were purple-like thin lines across the screen whenever I start the PowerBook up.
    After some consultation with a few Mac enthusiasts at my workplace, they concluded that my PowerBook's "death" was caused by the PowerBook's logic board failure. True enough, we opened up the thing and found out that the VGA component on the logic board was overheated and thus broke apart (literally!). The problem was a well-known one; according to my friends, the problem was also found in the iBook line and while the problem can be simply rectified on the iBooks by placing a piece of rubber (or whatever it is) on the VGA component, the same problem cannot be solved for PowerBook. Whatever it is, Apple was aware of the problem but did nothing to to solve the engineering/architecture defect.
    Well, since I've found the solution, I guess I'll try my luck hunting for a replacement logic board online. Thanks guys, you've been really helpful.

  • Calendar list of events

    Upgraded to iOS7.1.  Can only see 1 calendar event at a time even under a single day.  How do you (or even can you) change to list ALL events? I always used the list of events for ease in scheduling something.  Relied on this part of the phone/calendar.  If can't be done, back to stone age with date book until Apple gets the calendar back to a more usable state where one can list all events.

    artistmom,
    Bring back calendar list view in iOS!!: Apple Support Communities explains the changes.

  • Problems Printing with Macbook pro 10.4.6

    I have a MBP, and so far, no way to print. I try to do it, using airport, and even direct USB, but doesn't work, and the printer I have, acording to Epson is Universal. Is there someone, with a intel PB, that can print using a EPL-6200L.
    I when to the Epson site, install the drive, but nothing........
    I feel i'm back on stone age.
    Thanks in advance.
    Pierre

    Epson has a very confusing way to install drivers. It is a two/three step process. Did you get the message that says the install was successful? If not, you only unstuffed the .sea file. Find an Epson folder and unstuffit using the latest version of Stuffit Expander (10.0.2). Inside the folder you'll find a .dmg file or an Installer icon. Double click the .dmg or installer. The .dmg will mount and inside it you'll find the installer. Double click the installer and the installation of your drivers will start. The install ends with a message that says the install was successful.
    Post back if you're still having issues.

  • New update not allowing autoplay from URI

    Hello. We are a group currently developing a spotify app, and we were making use of the fact that you could send a URI to the browser and that song would autoplay from the desktop client. This is no longer possible with the new update, as it just finds the song and doesnt start anything. I hope this is a bug. The song will not start even though nothing else is playing either.
    Open.spotify.com always just opens the web player, so that is of no use as well in the app we are making.

    What is this for a stupid decission to cancel the autoplay functionality? Currently autoplay is not working! There must be the following in: - Open Spotify through a playlist link: Option in the URL for autoplay or just open the playlist- Open Spotify without a playlist link: Option to autoplay the last playlist If this will not be implementes ASAP I will look at Apple Musich and other like Deezer! Spotify is such a great tool, but what you have done here by killing the autoplay functionality was a step back into stone age !!
