Broadband Activation Problems

Hi there.  I'm hoping one of the mods picks this up as from reading some other posts, it seems that it is the quickest way to get this type of problem sorted and lots of people seem to have had the same issue.
My broadband activation date was 13 December but this never happened as I was told there was an issue at the exchange and that a new order had to be put through but this would be escalated and my broadband would be activated on Monday 16 December. Guaranteed!! I called the call centre on Monday 16 December to make sure this had been done and was told that it hadn't been escalated but they would do it now and my broadband would be activated within 24 hours. I was told this by a supervisor. 24 hours came and went and still no broadband. Yesterday, 18 December and I received a text and email telling me that my broadband was ready to use so I got home and tried it and still the red flashing broadband sign on the home hub. I called in and was told that Wholesale had closed off the order or the escalation and that everything should be ok but to leave it till midnight. This morning it still wasn't working so I called in and was told, again, that there was a problem with the order and that they would have to send another order to Wholesale or the exhange. I spoke with someone in the Customer Options team, which I assume is athe complaints section and was told that definitely it would be on in the next 48 hours. I do not believe this and now know, after speaking with a friend who is an engineering supervisor with BT, that it's more likely going to be a few weeks before my broadband will be activated. I am on the verge of cancelling my contract as the service has been very poor (I'm being very kind here) but if a mod can reply to this with maybe some contact details then I can give them my other details such as account number and telephone number. Things seem to get resolved (or at least you get told the truth) when a mod gets involved.  Thanks in advnace.  Stephen Campbell

  • Can you help me with FontExplorer font activation problems?

    Anyone know how to solve a font activation problem I am having with FontExplorer 4.2? I am on a new mac with new fonts, I am using Maverick with Adobe CS6. With my new mac I bought the latest version of FontExporer Pro X 4.2. This program is having trouble with font activation in all my Adoble suite apps including Indesign. Here is what I am seeing:
    1. The font activates, but the Adobe app does not recognize that it is active. If I go back to Font Explorer and deactivate manually, then re-activate manually. The adobe app might then recognize it. Sometimes it still doesn't. But this does not stay permanently, as soon as I do a restart I have to go through this process again. I see this more often with the User system fonts, but a few times with my regular fonts.
    2. Other times, such as in Indesign, I go to open the file and the file stalls and doesn’t progress while it is trying to activate the fonts.
    3. Another time I have seen after an illustrator file is opened the fonts aren't recognized as being opened and the text goes blank on the page.
    4. In all adobe apps, if I go to use "replace font" on the missing fonts (even though they are turned on) the "replace font" menu only shows the basic system fonts, it won't show me the other fonts turned on.
    I have seen these issues with both formerly created files and fresh new files.
    I have tried the following based on feedback from Font Explorer staff:
    Refresh your Spotlight database
    1. Quit all applications other than FontExplorer X
    2. Choose Tools > Refresh Spotlight Database
    Clean your font caches
    1. Quit all applications other than FontExplorer X 2. Choose Tools > Clean Application Font Caches (check all available checkboxes)
    3. Choose Tools > Clean System Font Caches (requires restart)
    Still after trying this multiple times, the errors continue and even get more random.
    I have also tried this based on their feedback:
    go to FONTEXPLORER X PRO -> PREFERENCES -> ADVANCED and make sure that "Automatically deactivate fonts which have not been activated by the system" is NOT set to never.
    Then click on TOOLS and clean all font caches. Then reboot the system.
    The auto-activation is using a new Apple technology (called Core Text), which unfortunately does not work correctly with some of the Adobe and Quark applications when keeping the fonts permanently activated. We are currently working on an update, and the next version of FontExplorer X Pro will fix this issue.
    This has also not work. Can anyone help me?

    Here is the official work-around for this problem.
    1. Locate "FontExplorer X Pro.app" in Applications
    2. Right-click on "FontExplorer X Pro.app" and select "Show Package Contents"
    3. Navigate to /Contents/Helpers/
    4. Double-click "FontExplorerXLauncher-3.app" or right-click and "Open" to launch it manually. This is needed only once, afterwards the plugins will work normally.
    Please make sure you open the version with the "-3" suffix, the other one does not fix the problem.

  • DC Activation Problem in CBS

    Hello,
    I am facing DC Activation problems in CBS.
    - We have two DC utils and config. The config DC uses utils DC and everything is working fine locally
    - Today we are migrating these local projects in NWDI.
    - I created new DCs in NWDI and copied the SRC folder. Did all required steps for migration, built locally and it works fine.
    - I then checked in utils and activated the same in NWDI, its working fine.
    - I then defined the dependency from the active workspace and everything is still fine.
    - Now I checkin the src of config DC and build the same. Here the problem arises. The Build Fails
    - Checked SDN and can see lot of people facing this problem but there is no solution.
    Any pointers to solve this problem will be helpful
    Regards,
    Shubham
    Here is the problematic area in log:

    Problem Solved.
    I removed the utils DC from my client. Also deleted the folder from the workspace. After this I created the project from the Dev Config perspective again. I was surprised to see there is no component in my utils DC and thats why the problem was there.
    I again copied all the src folder in the workspace and refreshed the DC. Now it locked all the source in the activity. I checked it in and repeated the above excercise. This time all the source code was there.
    I deleted the dependency in the config dc and created again from active workspace(although now I realize it was not required) and checkedin and activated.
    Hurray!!! It got activated.

  • WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON? Activation problem 194:100

    What the ihell is going on?
    I have been burdened with activation issues for weeks - see my previous thread. I have had no response here from Adobe about how to fix it. Please don't say this is a 'user to user' forum. It isn't a 'U2U' forum when Adobe state this is the first place we should look!
    Now, no CC program will run owing to something called 'Activation problem 194:100'.
    Yes, I have logged out. Yes, I have rebooted. Yes, I have deactivated 'more than 2 machines'. Why should I have to repeatedly click to 'deactivate 2 previous activations' when there has NEVER been more than one activation?
    Adobe not only make me look a laughing stock in the classroom but this constant issue that has been going on for weeks now subliminally tells students Adobe software is useless!
    When will I be able to use CC again? I am paying for it remember!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hello Rajshree,
    Welcome to Adobe Forum.
    CC has only EVER been activated on ONE PC.
    If you look at http://forums.adobe.com/message/6198690#6198690 you'll see (like many other users) I have to constantly sign in and reactivate. It is probably this that is causing the multiple activations.
    However, to reiterate, CC is only running on ONE computer. It has not at any time been activated on more than the same PC. One activation - one PC.
    So, the suggestion of waiting a few hours (if the prog won't activate / run) is less than adequate. Like everyone else, I pay to have it running 24 hours a day - every day.

  • Flash MX Professional 2004 Activation Problems

    I am having trouble activating Flash MX Professional 2004. I have had the product for many years, but it is asking again to be reactivated, probably because I have moved the vmWare virtual machine on which it is installed to a new host computer.
    I have learned that the old Macromedia activation servers are no longer available, and have tried using the information provided by http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/macromedia-legacy-activation-error.html. But that only activates me to a non-professional version. I need to use features in the Professional version.
    Is there a serial number available for Flash MX Professional 2004?

    OK, I have got my problem sorted.
    After a second call to UK customer service, I was e-mailed a serial number that they said was for Flash MX 2004 Professional. However, it didn't work with my version! My version is 7.2, and the original serial number of my product starts PFD700. The serial number given by Adobe is PFD800-00466-08280-86965. Maybe the 800 means its for a later version, don't know, but my version does not accept this as a valid serial number.
    A third call to try to get a PFD700 serial number got me a brick wall again, they insisted that was the only serial number for MX 2004 Pro they had. At this point I followed sinious's suggestion and asked to talk to a supervisor. They were on the phone, and I was promised a call back. I'm still waiting.
    So I hunted a bit harder with Google and eventually found a site that gave me a serial number. The use of that unlocked the Professional features of my version, and I'm up and running again.
    Thanks for your contributions guys, you've both helped. I agree with sinious's critism of moccamaximum, and wouldn't normally go to sites of dubious provenance for help. But after being exhausted by my efforts to get help from Adobe - who to be fair nearly got there in the end - I went hunting and found something that solved my problem. After all, Adobe themselves are publishing activation-free serial numbers.
    I've given the serial number I got from Adobe, it may help others who experience activation problems in the future.
    But I'll follow sinious's advice and not give out the serial number or details of the website I got it from. It wasn't very hard to find.

  • Mobile Broadband Activation - my country is not featured in the list

    Hi my unknown friends. I assembled a modem to my W530 and during instalation of the "Mobile Broadband Activation" application I was asked to "select the country where I was located". Unfortunate I currently live in Iceland but Lenovo does not seem to know this country, to which they sell so much of their stuff and have they authorized service and shop there, even existed and did not deign to place it on the list. They even did not bother to put there an option like "other". What should I choose to properly and correctly complete my installation process? Thank you in advance. 
    With regards

    If the phone was unlocked by anyone other than Apple or the carrier it was locked to (that is, unlocked by hacking) then it will become locked to the original carrier when you update it.

  • New ios 7 activation probleme

    im having an activation probleme in the new update can anyone help?

    All I can say is buyer beware. Lkely you purchased a stolen iPod. The Activation Lock is doing its job.
    This:
    iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
    says
    How do I check for Activation Lock before purchasing a used device?
    When purchasing an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from someone other than Apple or an authorized Apple reseller, it is up to you to ensure that the device has been erased and is no longer linked to the previous owner’s account.
    Follow each of these steps to make sure that you can use the device you purchase:
    Turn the device on and slide to unlock.If the passcode lock screen or the home screen appears, the device has not been erased. Ask the seller to completely erase the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been erased.
    Begin the device setup process.After choosing a language, choosing a country, and connecting to a network, the device will begin activation. If you are asked for the previous owner’s Apple ID and password, the device is still linked to their account. Hand the device back to the seller and ask them to enter their password. If the previous owner is not present, they can remove the device from their account by signing in to icloud.com/find. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been removed from the previous owner’s account.
    You will know that a device is ready for you to use when you are asked to “Set up your iPhone", “Set up your iPad", or “Set up your iPod” during the device setup process.
