  • Re: Best buy pc app error (digital download) please help

    Yesterday, I also purchased the game FEAR 2 Project Origins Windows Digital Download. It's in my Digital Library and when I click Download Now, I'm getting a pop up asking for a folder to download it to. When I try to save it to *any* folder (existing or a new one I create on my PC), I get the following message: "Please try again to save to a different location." I can't seem to save it *anywhere.* I've never had this problem before with previous downloads from Best Buy.
    Would appreciate help and direction. Thank you in advance!

I appreciate the detail you’ve provided in regards to this issue and I’m happy to say that I’m quite familiar with what you’re experiencing. With that, this is generally pretty easy to fix!
    I’ve contacted our Digital Operations team and they’ve performed some maintenance on this title. At your earliest convenience, please attempt to download and install your game again. If the issue persists, please let me know and I’ll be happy to help further.

  • Best Buy has Zero iPhone4s but the AT&T store NEXT DOOR has 80 (with more arriving!)

    Best Buy in Mount Laurel, NJ (1400 Nixon Drive) has ZERO iPhone 4s as of 6 PM on 6/28. Despite preordering on the 15th and I am still waiting with no word on when my phone will be in.
    So I call the AT&T store that is located NEXT DOOR @ 1420 Nixon Drive. I mean it is literally right next door in the strip mall. I'm told that they received 80 phones today and are expecting a shipment of 60 to 80 MORE phones tomorrow. The rep told me that they will have extra phone for walk-ins, but it's going to be first come-first served, etc.
    I mean, C'MON! It's like a bad joke.
    I've heard the arguement "it's not us, it's Apple" from Best Buy, but I guess I'm not clear on why Best Buy seems to have no leverage to get their pre-orders expedited.
    Heck, I don't understand why Best Buy can't, at minimum, get a straight answer from Apple about where/when Best Buy will be getting replenishment stock.
    As a customer, I don't care who's "fault" it is - in my opinion, it's Best Buy's fault. Obviously, there's no universal shortage of iPhone 4s when the AT&T store is getting extras and Best Buy can't fullfill it's preorders from the 15th.
    IMO, the problem is that Best Buy must have a pretty weak relationship with Apple to be treated this way. As a small business owner, if one of my suppliers was jerking me around like this, I'd sever the relationship. (Sure, I know this is more complex, but the principle is that Best Buy has a bunch of angry customers due to Apple's lack of support. That's a BAD business relationship, when your partners force you to lose crediblilty with customers).
    I'll never pre-order from Best Buy again. But you can blame Apple for that ...

    It simply amazes me that Best Buy continues to point fingers away from themselves.  I understand the RS situation.  They've never been what I'd consider an outlet for this type of situation.  While sad, RS's ineptitude doesn't surprise me.  Best Buy's does.
    That tells me there are more fundamental problems with Best Buy.  They either don't have a good relationship with their vendors (in this case, Apple).  Or, they really don't have a handle on inventory and shipping basics.  Maybe, as has been suggested, there's something amiss with employees taking the customer pre-orders and putting their family and friends in front of them.  Still, this has happened at seemingly every Best Buy store.  That tells me the problems with Best Buy are very widespread.
    As I posted before, I just walked into an AT&T store yesterday and bought a 32GB iPhone 4, no reservations.  Others have reported doing the same.  AT&T probably has fewer stores than Best Buy.  And, from what I can tell, have smaller iPhone stock than Best Buy.  Yet, they handled it much better.
    All pre-orders were filled first.  Then, walk-ups were allowed to buy.  No employees were allowed to buy them, under any circumstance, for anyone, until the customers were taken care of first.  Simple concept.  Apparently, too simple for Best Buy to understand.

  • What you need to know before buying an antenna

    Isn’t it time you upgraded to an antenna? Wait… what? Upgrade to an antenna? Whether or not you’re a cord cutter (meaning you’ve cancelled your monthly television service) you might find that adding an antenna to your entertainment viewing space can be a great upgrade for a variety of reasons. Whatever those reasons are, here’s what you need to know before buying an antenna.
     

    I don't set out to sell anything, I'm an independent writer tasked with writing stuff about things to inform people. We link stuff to help people find things if they want to buy them, but the above isn't a sales pitch, it's info to help people figure out if they want or need something. 
    I didn't know that there was a cabal of antenna dealers who have been promulgating a myth (as a writer: nicely done there) about the nature of NTSC and ATSC; I hadn't ever considered that the antenna market was that large. When I received the request to write an article about antennas I was actually surprised; antennas don't have the support of major telecommunications companies and I sincerely doubt that there's going to be a run on them because of this article. I saw this as a bit of a public service opportunity to talk about a technology that a small segment would be interested in. 
    Anyway, I'm not sure we're going to get much farther on this; yes Best Buy sells antennas, but no, they didn't ask for an ad. They asked for an article that focused on how these antennas work and what to look for. Thank you for adding your insight about ATSC - I think that was actually covered in paragraphy three, but it's nice to see it spelled out more directly.
    Have a nice day - and if you'd like to discuss this directly, please send me a DM on twitter @thetechnogram

  • Purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro XI Student edition from Best Buy and it will not download

    Purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro XI Student edition from Best Buy and it will not download. It made me download an installer  and then when I went back to download it from the Best Buy digital library and clicked on "Download," nothing happened

    I have done both of those and still no luck. I have tried this download on Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Firefox and its the same story on all of them. I have a Windows, also, if that helps

    I have downloaded a movie from ITunes.  It shows up in my video app.  When I go to play it I get an error message: "The requested URL was not found on this server". When I checked back on iTunes, where you click to rent or buy a movie it says "Downloaded".  Any advice on what I can do in order to watch this movie that I rented a couple of weeks ago?

    Can you let me know if its possible to import a muse site from Business catalyst in to Dreamweaver? I have published a site using Muse to Business catalyst but would like to use FTP in dreamweaver to administer and edit.

    I think you could but you wouldn't like what you see in Design View.   Why do you want to do this?

  • Best Buy has failed

    We recently purchased a new microwave and gas range from bestbuy.com. The delivery was done as promised on the date that was indicated. However, per the chart for installation it said there would be an additional fee to have the microwave installed, but for the gas range it said to call and see if installation was included or if it needed to be purchased. A few days before the scheduled delivery date we called and were told that our old gas range would be removed and our new gas range would be installed. We asked if there was anything else we needed to do and the customer service rep said, "no, everything is taken care of and anything that needs to be done to get us up and running would be taken care of." We were happy to know this as we are hosting our first family Christmas this year. When the "delivery" guys got here they said that installation was not included and brought in the new stove and they advised us to call and complain to customer service for being told incorrectly. At this point I had 2 gas ranges in my kitchen. They said they couldn't remove the old one as it was still connected and could lose their jobs if they disconnected it. The disconnect was supposed to be included with the install of the new gas range. We then called best buy customer service that night. We waited on hold for 20+ minutes and on with a rep/on hold for over an hour to be told there was nothing that could be done and we had to purchase installation for $140. All we got was an "oops, you were told incorrectly when you called PRIOR to delivery that installation was all set." This person was not a manager/supervisor and when we asked to speak to one were told one was there but not available. We ended up calling back, talking to a supervisor and were told the same thing. We are very disappointed in the misinformation and the way we were treated on these phone calls. The only nice encounter we had was with the delivery guys. We ended up canceling our order and requesting that the gas range be picked up. Funny they were back on our doorstep by 9am the next day to pick up the appliance. (although we had to wait 2 weeks for it to be delivered) Best Buy you have lost our business and I will tell my story to all family and friends and do everything to ensure no one else has to deal with the same BS as us. From all the other posts on here it seems as poor customer service is all too common.

    Hello kswhip21,
    Welcome to the forum. Buying new appliances is always an exciting experience. I can still remember the anticipation I felt when my dishwasher was to be delivered, and my husband made the necessary preparations to have it installed. I would definitely be upset if I wasn't informed ahead of time what was needed in order to install my new appliances without any delays, or hassle, and I sincerely apologize for any miscommunication you experienced when you ordered your new gas range. 
    Our drivers are not certified and trained to install gas ranges; therefore a separate installation must be scheduled, and I'm very sorry to hear the supervisor you spoke to was unable to provide a satisfactory resolution. I do appreciate you bringing this to our attention here at the corporate office, and I assure you I will be documenting your comments for further review.
    Once again, I truly apologize for any frustration or disappointment this may have caused. I hope you will reconsider, and give us another opportunity to offer you a much better experience. 
    Respectfully,

  • Foofle Toolbar is not compatible with Firefox 5. Throughout all the Firefox updates, there has never been this problem. Did you screw up?

    Google Toolbar is not compatible with Firefox 5. Throughout all the previous Firefox updates, there has never been this problem. Did you screw up?

    I wish it were that but a long time ago when I had a problem with the gadgets with iGoogle back 6 months ago thereabouts I was asked to disable it then and I did and I just went to re-check and it is still not enabled, however, it will not let me un-install it though.. It only gives me an option to enable or disable.. Any advice ? So I'm wondering if it is something else still or is there a problem with the avast still ?
    thanks again for your help. Mind you that this all started when blogger went down ..
    take care

  • What MacBook Pro do you all recommend me to buy? 13 inch or 15 inch?

    I'm a college student who is majoring in criminal justice and would soon like to switch over to Mac for the first time. I'm the type of person to rather pay more money in one shot then buying a new Mac every year. For example let's say if I buy the $1,999.00 MacBook Pro model with retina display, its understandable that the price is a bit high but like I mentioned before I'm the type to pay a lot in a one time payment then buying a new Mac every year. Mainly I will be writting papers, editing, reading; etc. No graphics, music, producing, remixing, video; etc. Just school and personal work. Please help me out here if its worth the investment of $1,999.00.
    Thank you!

    Go to a computer store and try both the 13" and 15". Both will do your tasks so the decision is left to which one you like working on more. Will the tiny display bother you when writing papers or will the 15" not be portable enough for you?
    Another consideration when buying an Apple computer, are you sure the papers you write will be 100% compatible with your professors' tools and will you be 100% compatible with other students for collaboratively working on projects? You don't want to spend a lot of time converting documents between Office versions and you want to make sure your professors can open your documents without loosing formatting.

  • Can i JUST buy mountain lion at best buy instead of having to download the other two before?

    yeah thats my question.

    No.
    But, you also don't have to download any others.
    If you don't already run 10.6, you'll have to buy that from the Apple Store on DVD.
    Then, you only have to download Mountain Lion, if you Mac is compatible: http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    Actually, I suppose it is possible you might find a copy of Snow Leopard in a Best Buy with really low sales volume.

  • HT203433 Does anyone know how to advise Itunes that a downloaded song did not completely download especially when four other songs had no problem?

    Downloaded Born to be Wild but only 1/2 the song downloaded. I also downloaded 4 other songs with no problem. How can I let Itunes know there is a problem with this song?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.
